A “Brilliant and Fiery Sunset,” Lingers Over the Potomac River, in Washington


These are beautiful photographs of an evening’s brilliant and fiery sunset, as it lingers over the Potomac river, in Washington. Buildings on the other side of the river, are sceneries of Arlington, Virginia. A very welcome and refreshing sight, after such snowy and wintry weather, over the past two weeks. As expected, the river is free of snow, has regained its emerald color, as it flows swiftly and sparkly towards the city. Although the river bank is still covered in snow, that should soon disappear, providing there is an increase in temperature and there are no additional snow storms, in the next few days.

As the saying goes “when life gives you a lemon, you make lemonade.” Apparently, being stocked in my 10th floor apartment for almost two weeks, has automatically unleashed my photographic potentiality. Incidentally, this has helped me to maintain my sanity while making the best use of my time, because being in an enclosed environment for such long periods of time, can literally drive you up the walls. I yearn to return to the island where I can practically live out doors.

I excitedly drove my car for the first time today, enjoyed a lovely dinner with my niece, Zakiya, but was truly amazed to see the mounds of snow along the roadside. My main concern was returning home before nightfall when I could run into black ice which is very dangerous and deadly. As reported and seen on various television stations, many side roads are still blocked and will remain abandoned for several days, because there is absolutely no place to dump all that snow. Unfortunately, when it rains, there might be serious flooding all over the city as well as in many other states…… because most states are experiencing an abundance of snow mounds.

I hope you will enjoy looking at my photographs as much as I have enjoyed shooting them. Thanks to modern technology, I was able to use my cell phone camera to capture these picturesque sceneries of this fiery sunset, from my 10th floor balcony.
