Last Sunday afternoon, as the sun was sinking low in the sky, I decided to drive about 2 miles to where I could get a good view of the sunset. A quick check of the paper led me to believe I had about 10 minutes to get there, but as I went to the car this is what I saw through the trees down the street. So I took a few shots as the sun dropped behind Catoctin Mountain. 
I then drove up the hill and this was the sky 6 minutes after sunset.
I love those colors through the trees, great shots.
