Hahaha I knew you were gonna ask that.

No in a decent house hahaha. Demolished.
They should place a monument don't you think so " DoubleDutch was born here ".

My grandfather owned a lot of the land around here.

Sunrise above the IJssellake (the lake in the middle of our country).

It was a sea (Zuiderzee = Southern sea) but was closed in the fifties to prevent floods aso. Slowly it became fresh water.

Found some more!

Just made this one Freezing here.

Not the prettiest but still pretty

Thanks Val for making this thread. Sunrises and sunsets are awesome.
Think we should them Valads

 

[stella1979]

Great thread idea Val!! I hope I can add to it soon. Curious about your Florida/Cuba pics. You must have been quite nearby at sometime or another. Pretty sure Cuba is only a bit more than 100 miles away, (as the crow flies), from where I am currently sitting while writing this. I'd love to hear about your trip, and will make it a point to stay a little later, or get there a little earlier next time I am in the Glades. Sunset or sunrise over the sawgrass is needed in this thread.

I was actually in the Florida Keys right before Cuba!! It was a cruise we did this summer shortly after I joined this forum. I think I actually might have a thread about my trip.. hold on one second

Edit: nope, call me a liar haha

 

[stella1979]

Haha yeah, kind of. This is just my front/side yard though lol.

I wish ours were underground! But then I'd probably never have power, like I never have internet

 

[loyal]

so ima do a small hijack, these are all skyline pics from when I was in the navy. not all are sunrise/sets, but some are still pretty cool.

 

[loyal]

That's awesome. I used to live in Galveston and always went fishing. I usually went to the 61st St. pier on the seawall, because I lived within walking distance. Plus, the numerous jetties along the beach. It's cool I recognized San Luis Pass almost immediately, after 7 years. I loved Seawolf Park too. I still remember there were so many seatrout, whiting, and ribbonfish.

Sunrise minus "sun"

 

[DoubleDutch]

Just made these

 

[DoubleDutch]

Uhhhh no sunrises or sunsets in the rest
of the world anymore? In Europe we still have !

 

[Zonai]

Ooh, sunsets are one of my favourite things to photograph! There's just something so magical about the sky bursting into a beautiful cascade of warm oranges before transitioning into cool purples, and finally dying into greys as the day turns to night. On the flipside, the beautiful deep purples that eventually become pale blue at dawn are equally as magical. Sunsets and sunrises make me very emotional.

Here's a few of my favourites (out of hundreds) that I've photographed. (⸝⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝⸝)





And a bonus sunrise (I think this one was taken last year when I was walking to the bus stop for school)!

I've been going to work when it's dark still so I haven't seen many

We always have sunrises and sunsets in South Florida DD! I would looove to share... but am often busy at home at these times of day, (gotta feed those kiddos before and after a busy day), and boo, I'm too deep in the city, so sunrise and sunset are not easily seen from home. Plans are in the works though folks. If the darn government shutdown doesn't hold us back, we'll be camping near the ocean in about a week, and I will do my very best to take halfway decent shots then. Believe me, this thread has been on my mind when I think of our upcoming camping trip.

"sunrise" this morning and "sunset" this afternoon.

Beautiful!

Thanks. Repaired the first link/pic

 

[DoubleDutch]

Not a sunrise but the fog / frost did give a nice effect.

 

[stella1979]

Yay! I finally have pics for this thread. Wish I had more and I definitely wanted waterfront pics. Let's just say the weather was not ideal for camping on the beach. Anyhow, here's sunrise just before a storm rolled in to Flamingo, Florida.


Edit: May as well put these here too. Just a pretty spot on our hike. The expanse looks much smaller in photos.


The trailhead for the 7 mile hike to Clubhouse Beach.

Made this one this afternoon and this evening. No sunset in the last one but frozen canals. First Speedskatingmatch on natural ice this evening (every year a match between several town who's first able to organise. 4 cm of ice needed)

 

[ValerieAdams]

On my way to go get coffee this morning, stupid power lines always get in the way. I didn't get the best pictures of it, but it was still pretty!

I wish I would've got some better pictures of it! That bridge/the river has some seriously gorgeous photos. Let me see if I can find some of them

None of these are mine but here are some cool bridge shots of that particular bridge:

Stupid power lines! I think that often too, but love the pics anyway. What is the structure in the background that looks sort of like a really tall lamp post?

Funny DD, I wikied the word 'Spire' to see if Val's structure could fit the bill. Hmm, I don't think it does but look what I found! A lovely example at a Netherlands university.

These are from Southern California, this thread just made me realize I’ve been working during too many sunsets
