Golden Hour at Wyandotte County Lake

During one of our warmer days in January, I was at Wyandotte County Lake during the golden hour.

This picture looks best if you click on it and see it in a larger frame.

Sometimes, no matter how cloudy it may be this winter, the sun drops below the clouds as it sets and casts a golden glow for a few minutes.

I find myself wishing, occasionally, that I had a better view of the setting sun from where I live.

This particular day started out cloudy, too, until the late afternoon when the sky cleared. I wasn't fast enough to get a longer line of ducks moving above the water.

Although some people I know rely on the camera in their phone, I recommend commuting with a camera in the car for those moments that occur but for an instant.
