The last intense sunset of summer. It was such a joy watching the sky go from a light wash of orange to just something totally brilliant. And even then, the clouds changed from a vivid orange to a stunning red/purple/pink.
It won’t be the last sunset of the year but I honestly can’t believe summer is already over. With the world’s current state of affairs, the year is moving by so quick. Pretty soon, 2021 will be upon us.

A pink, hazy sunset. I wanted to catch a glimpse of the sun but I didn’t make it in time. I believe the sky was hazy due to the smoke from the California wildfires making its way up to us.

The last cemetery visit of summer 2020. Whenever we visit family, I always like to walk around with my camera and take photos of whatever catches my eye, even if I’ve captured it before. Recently, I’ve been drawn to those lantern decorations. Soon, it’ll be the foliage. One thing I found particularly interesting was in the 9th image. I have no explanation for it. Solar flares I would understand if there was more daylight but it almost looks like teal smoke. I wonder if something of the supernatural variety was dying (pun not intended) to be the subject of a photo. A few steps further and it was a steep drop. Perhaps it was a warning to be careful.
Either way, I’m excited for the photos I’ll be able to take during autumn! Hopefully, I’ll be able to get more moody forest photos but with a lot more orange and a lot less green!

This was my first time visiting Woodbine Park. Born and raised in Toronto, I can’t believe I haven’t visited here before. The skyline was in full view and even though the sky didn’t light up the way I thought it would, I still really love the way the shots came out. I can’t wait to come back and visit when a more promising sunset is on the horizon.

Photos of the sky lighting up across Riverdale Park. I just love when you get that feeling that you’re going to get a crazy sky and Mother Nature decides to give one to you. It’s not something that always happens so I’m happy whenever it does!
