Early-September sunset moods

It rained today, at last. Good to see the earth receiving plenty of longed-for moisture. No walk though during the day, lots of work to be getting on with. Yet the online weather forecast predicted some sunshine before sunset, so a walk to catch it was in order. And indeed, the sky began to clear from the west. The heavy blanket of cloud was pushed inexorably eastward, the sun dropping into the slot between the cloud's trailing edge and the horizon. Just what I wanted...

Below: sunset over Wola Pieczyska. The DK50 – the way west.

Below: ulica Działkowa, looking at the western horizon a few minutes after the sun had set. The cloud formed an interesting arc framing the afterglow.

Below: the arrival of the 19:41 at Chynów station. On time. Everything as it should be. The clouds have passed over towards the east, leaving a perfectly clear sky, and after sunset, that crushed-velvet dusk. Gratitude for being in the moment.
