Sunsetting: verb (or alternatively, gerund), basking in the radiance of a really good sunset. also, doing whatever we’re doing in the midst of an active sun setting…
This was a really good one. The very best kind in which one can enjoy sunsetting.
Look who got his braces off! Hello, beautiful smile… Exploring … Light and flare dancing everywhere… I suckered Dog Dude into some portraits amidst the beach boulders, because it's Pet Week at I Heart Faces. He protested, and argued that his toenails were too long and his hair was wet and bedraggled and this just wasn't a good time ... I told him that if he just looked into future and gazed upon his 12yo self, he would be soooo appreciative that I took these handsome shots of his youthful, albeit wet, 9yo self. He remains unconvinced. But I know he'll see the "light" down the road, right? We weren’t the only ones sunsetting … This photographer, Nadia Martinez, and her clients hit the beach session jackpot this evening! Look at all that glorious light bouncing all around… Do you suppose I’ll ever get around to getting a current real portrait of myself that doesn’t include my arms??? Probably not. Funny true story … a friend of ours who recently saw me doing my long-arm-selfie routine, told Big Dude, “too bad that big camera is so lousy for taking selfies…”. Big Dude set him straight: “That’s an AWESOME selfie camera.” Whenever we cross beach paths with this lovely lady, she joins the dudes for frisbee … Happy sigh. Get ready … here comes some pretty splendiferous sunset action…
We Kellers are serious about our sunsetting. Big Huge Happy sigh. I declare, sunsets are good for the soul.

Sigh is rightW Dog dude is such a typical subject. Tell him to take a number with his protests already.
Great photos. And good you are getting in lots of them too. I am adopting the word sunsetting although most of mine are enjoyed in the drive home from work, they are still beautiful. :)

I think sunsetting is a perfect verb. : ) These photos are magical indeed. I love that you are able to spend time together at the end of the day enjoying the light and the love of one another. You are my favorite. I kind of want to clone your arms out of that pretty picture of you. Would it look weird? I should try it. You know, because I don't have three thousand and some photos to go through and edit for other people.... XO XO XO
