The sun goes down....

on a year of PADing when I really did post a new image every day. Well, almost
every day. I think at the start I posted a couple of 'fairly fresh' images and then
I accidently deleted my PAD image one of the times that Pbase was down. It's
been fun and more challenging than I thought and although there were times
when I wondered if it was an unhealthy obsession I don't intend to stop...but
I just might be a bit more relaxed if I don't manage to post every day.
Here the sun sets behind the roof of our neighbours' house. The two houses
have stood across the road from one and other for well over a hundred years
and at one time my grandfather lived here and his brother across the road.

Nikon D90
1/2500s f/6.3 at 105.0mm iso500 full exif

A lovely shot to close out your PAD year. I think it is too much of ask for me - I lack the discipline

A beautiful image with these silhouettes, lighting and rays. So nice that your family has been there for so long. "V"
Congrats on one year of PaD. I'm two thirds into year three on mine and find the less I think about it, the better it goes for me.
