Redhawks, Raindrops, and a Sunset

This evening after work I was planning to go photograph my nephew during his football game, but the threat of rain made me postpone for a couple of weeks. He's a varsity running-back for the Mountain Empire Redhawks and doing very well this season.

So with no football, I planned to just head home but as I left work I noticed a rather impressive sunset so I detoured about a mile over to the coast and got the camera out. The setting sun was absolutely brilliant against the broken clouds and distant rain. Luckily, I was able to get off a couple of shots before the rain caught up to me, forcing me to retreat back into the car as my particular equipment just isn't waterproof and the last thing I want is a big ol' splotch of water on my L-series lens.

Enjoy the photos, and go Redhawks!
