Sun setting over the Pukapuka Inlet, seen from Mahurangi East, NZ. Image: Su Leslie, 2017
When I saw Desley’s collection of gorgeous sunset shots (Oooh, Shiiiinyyyy!) I found myself nodding in agreement with her comment about the sky as a source of distraction. I could happily watch the sun rise and set … until the cows come home.

except the night sky here in the town is never as spectacular as it was in the country…

True. The Big T has been talking about buying a telescope “for when we move out of town!”

good idea – although in the country the sky is so bright you hardly need a telescope…

Thanks Lucile. I’d love to have those views every day, but am happy I can enjoy them now and then.

Me too! I always have to stop myself from taking sunrise/sunset pics – they never do justice to the amazing views I see with my own eyes.

It was such a gorgeous sunset. We went home and checked out real estate in the area. Bit out of range sadly, but you can see why!

stunning, I’m totally jealous of that view too! Desley has a great balcony and view of the sky, totally jealous I really can’t see that much from my back deck for the trees and houses 😦

I wish that was the view from my house! I do see great sunsets from the office, but they are a bit spoiled by the neighbours’ houses.

Thanks. We were driving home along this amazing ridge line with the sun setting. If I could afford to live there, I’d move tomorrow!
