"Crépuscule, comme vous êtes doux et tendre! Les lueurs roses qui traînent encore à l'horizon comme l'agonie du jour sous l'oppression victorieuse de sa nuit, les feux des candélabres qui font des taches d'un rouge opaque sur les dernières gloires du couchant, les lourdes draperies qu'une main invisible attire des profondeurs de l'Orient, imitent tous les sentiments compliqués qui luttent dans le coeur de l'homme aux heures solennelles de la vie."

Charles Baudelaire

"Twilight, how sweet and tender you are! The pink gleams that yet trail at the horizon like the agony of the day under the victorious oppression of its night; the light of candelabra casting opaque red stains on the last glories of the setting sun; the heavy draperies that an invisible hand draws toward the depths of the Orient, imitate all of the complicated feelings struggling in the heart of man during the solemn hours of life."

Charles Baudelaire

Splendide couché de soleil, les couleur dans le ciel sont magnifiques.
le cadrage carré donne une belle composition pour cette image.
J'apprécie aussi le détail des branches de l'arbre qui se découpe dans sur le ciel.

très belle image.
Merci.

Bonjour Pascalie

Excellent visual and compo!
I adore these lukewarm compositions and this beautiful horizons!
I like clouds slightly orange and some rose.
Your tree here of the a beauty show and it appreciates alone all this final one in the daytime. Fortunate her!

Bien au plaisir!

Bonjour Pascalie
Très joli coucher de soleil avec ce halo de lumière qui entoure cet arbre en ombre chinoise. D'aucun dirait que c'est du déjà vu, moi je trouve que chaque coucher de soleil est unique et je ne m'en lasse jamais. Superbe.
Amicalement

Bonjour Pascalie.

Jolie photo en contre-jour, de belles couleurs. J'aurais aimé voir l'arbre au complet en contre-jour cependant. Pour le reste, j'aime bien.

Beautiful picture of the sunset.

hi Pascalie

I can see that your 1st post on TL is a evening scene which has done very well, and now you are posting another sunset view of nice warm sky color. Sometimes it is amazing how we photograph landscape work from different parts of the world and share/compare our photos and tell our own stories.

.what we see
.how we feel
.technical skill

I hope you will keep shooting and sharing France. TFS

cheers, bill

Evening Twilight

Delightful evening, partner of the crook,
Steals in, wolf-padded, like a complice: look:
Heaven, like a garret, closes to the day,
And Man, impatient, turns a beast of prey.


Sweet evening, loved by those whose arms can tell,
Without a lie, "Today we've laboured well:"
Sweet evening, it is she who brings relief
To men with souls devoured by one fierce grief,
Obstinate thinkers drowsy in the head,
And toil-bent workmen groping to their bed.


But insalubrious demons of the airs,
Like business people, wake to their affairs
And, flying, knock, like bats, on walls and shutters.
Now Prostitution lights up in the gutters
Across the glimmering jets the wind torments.
Like a huge ant-hive it unseals its vents.
On every side it weaves its hidden tracks
Like enemies preparing night-attacks.
It squirms within the City's breast of mire,
A worm that steals the food that men desire.


One hears the kitchens hissing here and there,
Operas squealing, orchestras ablare.
Cheap tables d'hôte, where gaming lights the eyes,
Fill up with whores, and sharpers, their allies:
And thieves, whose office knows no truce nor rest,
Will shortly now start working, too, with zest,
Gently unhinging doors and forcing tills,
To live some days and buy their sweethearts frills.


Collect yourself, my soul, in this grave hour
And shut your ears against the din and stour.
It is the hour when sick men's pains increase.
Death grips them by the throat, and soon they cease
Their destined task, to find the common pit.
The ward is filled with sighings. Out of it
Not all return the scented soup to taste,
Warm at the hearthside, by some loved-one placed.


But then how few among them can recall
Joys of the hearth, or ever lived at all!


— Roy Campbell, Poems of Baudelaire (New York: Pantheon Books, 1952)

Hi Pascalie,

Had to read up on my Baudelaire.

A lovely picture, made even more beautiful by the way you framed it.

Moi, j'ai trop de souvenir avec ce coucher de soleil... l'apéro, le resto, les courbatures du dada...
Comme j'y étais, je trouve dommage que tu ais réduit/recadré l'image et ajouté ce large encadrement et puis j'aurai poussé un chouilla la saturation
Bizzz la vacancière !

MoI - l'esclave du TAF ! :(

Saeed
