Beautiful number three could have come straight out of "Mon Oncle"... He lives in a rooftop apartment in an old house in a small village and every day before leaving home, he aims his window so that it reflect the sun into a bird cage across the street to make the birds sing. :-)
African sunsets are special, Guy, but I can't say, honestly, that they are better than sunsets anywhere else, having seen so many others. Perhaps we love the sunsets most that we were born to? I remember the ones in the Okavango being spectacular - the one above reflected in the one in the water, in perfect focus. Unlikely I will see those again, as they semes to have been priced way out of my range...

ReplyDeleteDoes he put a blanket on them to shut them up again? - that's what we did in the days when we had a canary, :-)
ReplyDeleteSunsets are always best with partly cloudy conditions. There is still not much that beats an African sunset for pure magic?
ReplyDeleteI don't think that the Aurora Borealis with its solar winds and earths magnetic field, magnificent as they are, can be classified as sunsets though.
