Sunset Photographs

The other night there was a beautiful sunset in San Jose. As the sun was just setting behind the mountain, the sky filled with clouds and became very overcast. The result was like shining a very dark sky, but a very bright light because the sunlight was all reflecting off the clouds. Here are some photos.

This picture is looking west from our front porch.

These two pictures are the same view, but with different camera settings. It was amazing how dark the shadows were, at yet how bright and colorful the light was.

Looking directly west at the sun. I love the perfectly straight line of sunlight coming off the mountain on the left side of the picture.
