Second night of a disappointing photo but at least it is a lot better than the first posting of the sun. At least this you can see some color and it looks like the sun was cut in half.Sorry this photo is blurry not sure what happend there.
I am not sure what setting i had this one on, but it does not look all that pretty like the rest.
As it was disappearing
And then it was gone

It is well known that we Portuguese once sailed the seven seas searching for new lands, wealth and adventures.
We were brave in those days and gave the world new worlds!
Luckily I don’t have to sail the big oceans on a small ship to sea the wonders of our world …
No Sir, I just need to check with Mr. Tom, the finest host there is, for a trip around the world with SKY WATCH TOURS and with a click here, a click there I am quickly in the USA, England, Brazil, Italy, China, Australia, Finland … well, everywhere.
And on each stop I come to see a little marvel of our world under a great sky!
Hope you can come and see my piece of the sky at lenses & visions
As I said, they may not be the must of the must but they are great!
These are very nice sky watch shots! a lovely sunset!
My Sky Watch Friday posts
I think this is going to be the best Sky Watch Friday yet. The things I have seen are very encouraging and the photography is spot on.
I really admire your photography skills and your critical eye for composition, lighting and texture.

I could give my own opinion with your topic that is not boring for me.
This topic have a tendency to become boring but with your creativeness its great.
Stunning Sky Watch pictures with a fantastic sun!!
Interesting how the sun appears 'cut' by a cloud? Also liked the images in the post below!I admire your determination in shooting that perfect photograph you're looking for :)
The eye can see what the camera cannot record.
Thank you for being a part of this weeks Sky Watch.. I and other really appreciate your posting...
Thank you
Tom
Hi Lilli
Thanks for your comment it really mattered what you said.. thank you.. I have so much enjoyed this weeks pictures from your part of the world... have a Great $th of July..
Tom
Fun sky watch sweetie!! Pretty!!hughugs
I know it's not exactly the way YOU viewed it with the naked eye but it's still very very beautiful... I have the same problem with my camera. I think I have to invest in a better camera and/or invest in a program such as Photoshop to help aid in making the photos "pop" out much brighter and dramatic... that is what many folks out there do.... but as I said before... these photos still look amazing just the way they are!

I like how it appears to be sliced in half! I suppose a cloud got in front of it?
You were there for it, Lilli! These are really nice. God bless!
Lilli: Sometimes we as photo artist take what we get, those are some great Skies.
Huh - another german Expat! Colors are not that bad at all!
Happy 4th and Cheers, Klaus
wonderful series! the sun looks so mysterious, looking like that. :)
nice pic have good weekend
I don't think these are disappointing skies, Lilli! I think thy're lovely. ;-)
I still think they are ALL gorgeous!
You got some wonderful colours in these photos. Happy SWF.
I like these shots Lilli. I like how the sun is cut in half...
Happy 4th to you.
the sun takes on the look of another planet!
I love the colors fo your pictures. This sun cut in half is very unusual for who knows look at the Nature. I love #2 with 2 different colors in the both half! Surreal!
Thanks to share with us Lilly.
Thank you for your kind comment on my blog!
As far as cameras and camera settings are concerned, I am a firm believer that it is worth experimenting with the settings, even with the cheapest digital cameras. Try, try again, thankfully all it takes is your time and patience, to find out the best settings for various light siuations.
Good luck! :-)
And yes, I do like the pictures the way they turned out, great potential, keep up the good work!
I rather like the line through the moon.
It's still beautiful, the whole set of images. Such pretty colours.
This makes me think of how life is. We sometimes see it one way, but when we want to share it with another, it can be interpreted as completely different. Your camera did the interpreting for you.
In my experience of shooting into the sun you have to manually set your camera. It has a hard time adjusting to the harsh light versus dark, kind of like our eyes. It's best to take all auto controls off and adjust; with digital you can see the effects while changing the aperture and shutter speed.
Happy 4th and skywatch Friday!
No boring shot. Beautiful sky.
Beautiful series, I like the second photo specially!
Wonderful, each photo with different color.
The secnd photo is the best! True,sometimes you look at something and it really is so beautiful, but when your camera captures it, turns to seomthing other than what you expected....
Happy skywatching!
Great sky watch post!!!!!!!!
These are NOT disappointing! Maybe they arent exactly what you hoped to get but they are wonderful
:-Daryl
But that's great! It must have taken a lot of time to take this series of the setting sun, the result is beautiful!!!
It's not disappointing I still like the blurry effect of the 1st shot. HAve a great weekend!
Those are some great Skies.
Well done, Lilli!
Very nice post!Sunset is always a great view!
Greetings from Seattle. Thanks for visiting my blog.
I have no advice for your photo shooting - I usually just point and shoot on Auto.
Great sky.

by the way, thanks for sky watching at my blog! see you next week!
Blessings and Beyond
Happy 4th of July from Canada!
I think they are beautiful Lilli! And the ones from the prior day also!!
Hello! I love all the photos. I think that blurry pictures add a little more drama to a shot. Good job. Lisa
I love the second one!
I like how it looks split.
Hope you're having a wonderful holiday.
I like these photos - the colors are so interesting, especially in the first two and the clouds in the last are just lovely.
Hi Lilli! See no reason for disappointment!! Love the pics!!
Thanks for your comment on Blogtrotter, now on its last post on Santiago de Compostela! Wish you a great 4th of July and wonderful weekend!
Oh stop it! :) It will come up again tomorrow and you'll have another shot. Go ahead, relax. We'll wait.
The last shot behind the clouds is my favorite.
Heyya I liked the photos
Awesome the colors etc wonderful
Great set of photos.
Great collection of photos.
Hi.. thanks for your comments... the one about the green grass and the sunshine made me giggle as when I read and s I write this it is throwing it down and thunders is banging.. ha! now thats the English weather for you ;o)
Great sky watch :)
These are wonderful pix! That's unusual to have the sun cut in half like that. And the purpley pink is gorgeous! :)
I liked the colors and the split sun. I feel your pain, but there has been some comfort in that a few of the "mistakes" yielded an unexpected treasure.
So even though it may not have been what you initially intended, your post was still great fun and definitely worth the visit. :-)
The colours often disappoint when you take them, as the camera doesn't see exactly what you see.
We didn't see your sunset, only your photos - and to us they are beautiful. Keep posting things like this.
