Last Sunset of 2001

New Year's Eve

I like photographs of the evening turning to night - it's a quite attractive time of the day, especially if there is some interest in the sky. Not a common event here in mid-winter, but New Year's Eve was relatively clear, so off to St. John Vianney Church in Kirkland to photograph both the Christmas decorations and sunset.

There had been rain during the day, and the raindrops are just visible on this tree, with the light coming from behind.

Just visible on the bottom of the clouds there is a light spot - it's a plane on its way to land!

Note the plane between the tree and spire, only really visible on the larger image.
