Line up for this sunset

Now that the hops are harvested across the road we have at least some of our view back. The lines of the hop trellis make an interesting counterpoint to the streaks of colors in the sunset.
The con-trail looks like it is pointing directly at the evening star, but it passed it by.

Cool catch for skywatch! Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even recognize__ blue sky, white clouds, and our own two eyes. All is a miracle!!! Happy skywatching! Hope too see you @ corner too...

Lovely colors, Katney! Seems we were both of a mind to show our skies today through a pattern of lines. :)

Really beautiful colors and combination with black.

Very pretty... like a watercolor painting ... very gentle pastel colors in the sky. Soothing.

Great shots both. I like the hop poles and wire in the first one, and the colour of the sky.

All I know about hops are that they are used to make beer - so I'm glad to know that the harvest has been secured!

(And also that the plain missed the star...)
