It's getting that time of year where (usually) we're blessed with brilliantly colourful sunrises and sunsets, at sensible times of the day as well!
Though I have to confess, so far this month, the weather hasn't leant that way, but here's some to start you off.

Grand idea Mike & great pics to start off ... problem here is that I have to physically go out to capture either as living in a quarry blocks them off ... not a morning person so will try for sunsets as I managed last year, got some special places!

We live virtually at the bottom of a dip, with buildings, and a plentiful supply of tall trees, all around us, so likewise, capturing a decent sunrise or sunset can be challenging.
It won't be long before the sun rises close to 08:00am....

Oh no ... hibernation looms! Lol
I took a couple earlier in the month from the back garden
Amazing colour this time of the year.
Lot to learn

Lovely
Ok, I think I've got a very basic grasp of how this revamped forum is working
Twas a bit of a shock, away for a long break and come home to find no forum!
Still, lets revamp this topic, and a few sunset pics from my break.
Conwy Bay Sunset, overlooking the bay from Deganwy towards Llanfairfechan and Anglesey
Sunset over the Conwy Estuary
Lovely photos Mike, we've good friends who live at Deganwy, so it's nice to see their views!
Best wishes

The first three pics were taken off West Shore, opposite where the old Gogarth Hotel used to be, and the last two were taken not far from the Benarth Hide at RSPB Conwy.
It is a lovely area, and if it wasn't for the problems with health care, I'd be tempted to move there when I retire.
I've a few more pics to upload, once I've managed to grasp how the new forum format works..
Some lovely dramatic skies you've captured there, Mike

Thank you Nigel.
There should be lots of opportunities to grab some spectacular sunrises and sunsets over the next three months.
