2016-12-27 01Sunset
Today's sunset - for George Michael and Liz Smith yesterday, and for Richard Adams and Carrie Fisher today. There's only four days to go, and 2016 continues to leave me gobsmacked and sad... I know there have been some good things too (because in a whole year there must be some, somewhere), but....

It's a lovely picture, thank you, and a lovely way of saying goodbye... This year keeps rocking me back on my heels.

Right down to end-of-the-year computer gremlins too... my internet keeps going out as well!

Beautiful sunset, dear, but I still can't wait for 2017 to start.

As long as it doesn't turn out to be a continuation of 2016!

I like to think that the beautiful colours are a way to say we aren't beaten by 2016 - but we are certainly bowed. I just hope 2017 doesn't continue in the same vein. :((

Oh, I like that idea! And yeah - there's always the awful possibility (and looming spectre, in some ways) that 2017 will be worse...

It's been a terrible year for celebrity deaths, for sure. Only another three days to go - hang in there everyone!

It barely seems like there can be anyone left - but yes, hang in there everyone! And let's hope 2017 gets better...

I drove to San Francisco at sunset on Tuesday and so wanted to stop the car in the middle of the Golden Gate bridge and just admire the sun sinking into the ocean and the fiery sky above. It was truly stunning--so thank you for your sunset picture!

Oh, I remember some beautiful sunsets around SF and Marin - such a gorgeous place to live. I miss the ocean too - I'm too far away from the sea! I'm glad you liked the pic, and it helped you remember your own sunset - that's the nice thing about sharing on lj, I think! *g*
