Here are a few images taken shortly after sunset last Monday. The hill in the distance is Catoctin Mountain. I just like the shapes of the trees against the evening sky. Have you ever wondered what dusk looks like from above? Here is a twilight shot taken from the International Space Station in 2005.
Hi Lew... these trees are stunning... I keep meaning to do a series of picture through the months... taking all the pictures from the same spot to see how the trees take shape and change with the seasons.... maybe this year is the time for me to do it....
I joined the Header Challenge team in November. We post a new header each week on a suggested theme. Imac is the founder and head of the team. The members vote for best header and the winner gets the gold. The links above will take you to the other participants.

I agree, those wonderful old trees are great to see silhouetted against the fading sky. Nice photos.
I love the tree silhouettes! Soon they will be in full leaf!
Ah, me three! I love the silhouetted trees, too! And what a lovely, pale sky! Marvelous captures as always, Lew! Hope you have a great weekend!

Great colours and I like the bare bones of the trees.

Beautiful silhouetted trees against lovely evening skies ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
