Every Friday, Chania at Razmataz holds the Friday Photo Challenge. This week’s subject is Reflections. I just had to participate with this picture of a summer sunset at the cottage:
Summer isn’t summer without weekends at the cottage. Of course, I love swimming under sunny blue skies — but I also love swimming in the evening. If there are clouds in the western sky, I get to see beautiful sunsets like this one. And then as the sky gets darker, the stars start popping out. First a bright one in the western sky, then a couple almost directly overhead. And then I look towards the north and there’s the Big Dipper to the west and Cassiopeia to the east. And if I’m really lucky, I’ll see a shooting star.
I might try to squeeze out a couple more days of swimming at the cottage this weekend. But with the rain and colder temps this week, the lake might be on the cold side… brrrrr!!
PS: Thanks Kat for your suggestion to link to Newton Daily Photo — done!! Be sure to check out the great Weekend Reflections photos on James’s blog.
Whatever your plans are for the weekend, have a good one!!

What a stunning sky...how lucky are you.
Swimming...in the lake...in the dark...in the cold...you are a braver girl that I!
Great photograph!! I hope you don't get too chilly swimming! :)
Lucky you! We always manage to get our best weather here in the San Francisco area in Sept. after we've all gone back to work/school :(
That is such a beautiful view! It's chilly here, too. I think we're supposed to get the rain on Sunday.
That is a gorgeous shot. Almost a mirror image with beautiful colors. Isn't Canada beautiful?
Thanks for joining us today.
Gorgeous photo! Love the romance of the sunset!
Have a great weekend.
Beautiful image! That I could swim under for sure! olive♥
So very pretty! Nice place to hang out. Kit
Gorgeous shot Kelly. You might consider linking this to Weekend Reflections at Newtown Area Photo - it's perfect for it. You can find James' link on my sidebar. Kat
Have a a fab weekend - hope you get your swim in despite the rain ! Lots of rain is forecast for our weekend too and I want to run 10kms tomorrow if it stops !
Beautiful photo, Kelly!! I agree. There's just something about a summer sunset at the water...
Beautiful photo! I hope that you have a great time at your cottage!

Great post. I liked it.
The picture seems a painting.
greetings from Roberto
Beautiful sunset. Have a good weekend.☺
Beautiful! great colors
to be swimming in that molten sunset water sounds luxurious!
This is such a great sunset ; it must have been really spectacular...
How gorgeous! That photo is almost like a painting and deserves to be framed. Late summer/fall sunsets can be quite spectacular in Canada as I remember from long ago.
Kelly,
We truly are blessed to live in heaven on earth. How could we ask for anything more. Beauty, peace, tranquility, reflection... life is good. Enjoy!
