Winter Sunset From my Window - sunset photo

This is yesterday's sunset. I have a beautiful landscape opening up from my window to west.

I made this photo facing the sun, braking so the rules, but they are made to be broken.
It is amazing how fast the colors change at sunset. In a few minutes the sun was gone after the hill.

It is more amazing how a camera can change a human being. In everyday alert rhythm, we don't really take notice of these beautiful things.

Thanks to my humble Canon camera I discovered and learned to appreciate these "less" significant pleasures of life, like taking a photo of a beautiful landscape.

Holiday Atmosphere.

I wish you all joy and happiness, may all your dreams come true in this new year!

During this long winter holidays' period churches are among the most visited places (besides parties).

In the photo you can see the Dormition of the Theotokos Cathedral in Cluj-Napoca. It was built in a Romanian Brâncovenesc style, between 1923 and 1933 and designed by architects George Cristinel and Constantin Pomponiu.
