SkyWatch Friday / Sunset From the Highway

 
These sunset scenes were taken recently while driving south on the 57 Freeway towards the ocean in Orange County, California.  The colors changed with the passing time and how the road curved one way or another.
I thought this was a very pleasant drive!

Great captures, Carolyn! Beautiful skies. I love the different colors of the skies...how they contemplate with each color. Amazing. With these kind of skies, I would love to travel even if it will take me hours on the road.

Have a great weekend Carolyn.
