Skywatch Friday # 57: Sunset at Ormond Beach

Sunset at Ormond Beach, Florida.  August 5, 2009.

Sunset at Ormond Beach, Florida. August 5, 2009.

This is my post for Skywatch Friday, a meme for sharing views of the sky from all over the world.  To see more, or to join and share your own photos of the sky, click HERE.

The picture above was taken at sunset on Betsy’s birthday.  We were in Ormond Beach, Florida, and had a room overlooking the Atlantic.

Now I know the sun doesn’t set over the Atlantic from Florida.  The sun was going down behind us on the other side of the building.  But I liked the color of the clouds over the ocean that I couldn’t resist snapping this photo.  And, of course, I had to share it on Skywatch Friday.
