Sunset in October

On the evening we took "the long way home" I was happy to have the camera as we wound down country roads at sunset.  It was a beautiful evening.

This was over some crisply changing farm trees.  The sky was this awesome pink/yellow.

A few minutes later the trees gave way to an open field of freshly cut corn stalks.  It looked so cold and desolate except for that ball of fire in the background.

This farm was just to the right of the sunset in the previous picture.  It looks so much brighter...

Just a few seconds later that sun had dropped even more and changed the whole color of the landscape.  Weird how that happens...
