I love when clouds get a pink tint to them during sunsets. I really love taking pictures during sunset and sunrises. The problem I face is that I don't have places to go to capture them. Well, what I mean are places that give a nice clear view of the sky or skyline. It is one of the many things I miss about living in the North East. I could climb a mountain and get a beautiful view of the sunset from so many places. It is so flat down here in South Carolina that I have difficult finding open skies.
I was out driving one day, searching for something, like I always do and my mom called me and asked me if I saw that area of lovely orange flowers by the auto sale place. I knew the one she was talking about, so I went over there and I couldn't believe that I had missed these when I was out that was a couple days before. They are absolutely lovely flowers when there are so many bunched together, and then when you take a closer look you see they have a lot of depth in their colors.
The Skywheel is one of those landmarks that people know of when they think of Myrtle Beach. To be able to capture the sun setting behind it like that took a little planning and getting in the right position on the right day. I love how the sun is just poking through the skywheel in this one.
