The view from my window

May 17, '10 4:58 PM for everyone

Every evening I sit here at my computer desk under the window. As I check emails, read blogs, write blogs, download photos  or any of the other things I do sitting here, I look out of the window and watch as the the sun sinks out of view. My tomato plants turn into  silhouettes on the windowsill and the sky goes pink and orange. It has never occurred to me  to actually photograph the sun as it sets in the window. Its almost 10 and still not quite dark.
