These pictures were taken from the “other side” of the river during sunset on Thursday evening. Motor Man and I had run a few errands in Newport News, and as we were heading home, the sun was setting. We stopped at Huntington Park for a couple of quick photos.
I like the silhouettes of the folks on the beach.
This one was taken a few minutes later as we crossed the James River Bridge.
Perhaps I could talk someone into authorizing having those power lines put underground? (For those of you who aren’t from this area, the James River Bridge is approximately 4 miles long. Slim-to-none chance of those utility lines being buried!)
This last photo was taken as we crossed the bridge over Jones Creek in the little town of Rescue, just a few miles from home. I shared sunset photos from this same bridge a few weeks ago.
Rescue is a quaint little village, and the view from this bridge is especially nice. As I mentioned in the previous sunset post, this isn’t a heavily traveled road, so Motor Man was able to stop for me to snap a quick photo.
these days of mine 
Beautiful! Good luck with that power line project of yours…. 😀 …. on the last two shots that cloud bank just on the horizon almost looks like a snow covered hill with clouds dancing on its’ crest.

Beautiful pictures of the James River. I love crossing the bridge at sunset. Very pretty
Good Morning Dianna! I love the last shot. It just feels happy and boat-ie to see all those boats sitting in the water! You can see the “golden” in it too… 🙂
Something about that last photo…it just draws me in. All are lovely. I did enjoy the silhouettes very much.
All are lovely but I’m particular fond of the one taken from the bridge in Rescue…so many unusual names in south-eastern VA. Wonder who/what was ‘rescued’ and when???
I love the way you look at the world, Dianna! You always remind me to take the time to stop and smell and roses (or view the sunsets)!
i didn’t mind the power lines. 🙂
Great series!! I think you might have an additional ‘sunset spot’ at the bridge in Rescue .. impressive pics from there !
Beautiful as always.
That last view is especially nice from the bridge.
