This weekend was Homecoming. Between all the brilliant, hilarious, craziness that is Homecoming plus teachers still giving incessant homework, there seems to be little time to rest. My favorite moment of the weekend happened Saturday night. I'd come home after the football game (which we dominated) and started catching up on The Walking Dead. I peaked outside and saw the sunset was going to beautiful. Last minute I called up my girl Emily, who's always up for an adventure, and we headed out to one of Bolivar's many bridges to try and capture my favorite aspect of God's creation.
Driving out of town around seven or so, I was nervous. Chasing a sunset, hoping to make it in time to catch some its glorious light, is not a thing one does calmly. (Plus, my irrational side didn't want to run into any walkers after dark.) Though I firmly believe that wrong turns are simply part of any adventure, I was incredibly thankful to arrive at our intended bridge in time to capture some of the most stunning colors I've seen in the sky.
After a week of non-stop running around, I loved being outside to soak up the beauty around us. Don't go calling me Wordsworth (seriously please don't he kind of creeps me out) but being near the water always seems to set me to rights again. I'm still definitely a newbie when it comes to photography but I'm really enjoying learning. Plus my camera is already my baby. Here are some of my favorite images from our too-short-but-fantastic spur-of-the-moment sunset session:
