Lengthening Days

For the past few weeks it's been the usual January scenario of leaving the house in the dark and getting back from work in the dark. Today, however,  I arrived back at around 5 o'clock and had this view from my back door...

Okay, I know it's nearing darkness... but in a very pretty way and it was light enough for my camera to take the shots (which it doesn't usually do for sunsets!)

    This is gorgeous! I mentioned to my hubby yesterday that it was almost six and still a sliver of light out. It's such a good feeling to see the days growing longer.

    This time of year, it is occasionally hard to remember there is a sun. Good for you to get to see it and capture it!
