@guchtere once told me that the sunsets here in Playa del Carmen were so beautiful, that they deserved a post of their own. Well, here it is!!
I have seen some very lovely sunsets here, but nothing like last night!
It had been really stormy the last few days; thunder like I've never heard and lightening like I've never seen,
but as suddenly as the dark clouds moved in, they also moved away,
and we were left with the most spectacular sunset I've ever seen!
I of course was running around snapping a thousand photos,
but managed to cut it down to these ten to share with all of you :)
Each time I turned, there seemed to be a new color popping up,
and as quickly, the sky changed shades to something different, but equally stunning!
Artists' shades of pinks and blues, so soft,
swirling among the vibrant shades of yellow and orange.
It really was a welcome spectacle, and I'm crossing my fingers that it's a sign of a beautiful day tomorrow :) I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did!
Every picture deserves post of it's own...
Now there's an idea! :)
Wonderful! Wish I could have that sky... Pissing down rain here at the moment.
haha thank you @danielsaori!! Where are you?
Wow, this is rather stunning @lynncoyle1, especially how the colors evolve so rapidly, but never seem to loose their grace...
Thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful way to describe it @zyx066! I felt like a kid Christmas morning; everywhere I looked, there was something else to marvel over :)
Thank you so much for stopping by :)
Oh, I really like the ninth. The color conversion in the sky resembles a rainbow, only without a green color.
Thank you @amalinavia! I hadn't noticed that, but yes, you're so right on that one! :)
As they say "red sky at night, sailor's delight" so here's hoping for a beautiful next day to follow such a beautiful sunset. These really are spectacular photos, thank you so much for sharing!
Well then, they were right haha because the weather the next day was equally spectacular :)
I'm so glad you enjoyed them @sigilmancy! Thank you for stopping by :)
Hehe yeah there it is finally! 😎
Beautiful sunsets as always thanks for posting these.
You are most welcome @guchtere! I'd been thinking about a 'sunset' post ever since you said it, but for a bunch of reasons, it just didn't pan out...until this night!
Can I challenge you for a series of sunsets? 😇
Although what can I offer to challenge... 🤔
Hi Lynn! Seems i haven't seen you in a long time! Beautiful sunset images. Thanks for sharing! Here's to hoping you have a clear and beautiful day tomorrow 🤞💚❤💚🌸🌻
Hey @yogajill! I've taken a bit of a "slow down" recently,not a break really, just a little less steemit and a little more real life outside :)
The days since have been spectacular! Thank you so much for stopping by!!
Good for you & Brian. I love the flexibility of this community 🎶🎵🎶🎵❤🌅
It really is great, isn't it?! Stop, start, take a break, slow down, speed up... whatever we want to do, and everyone just accepts it. Pretty awesome!
Beautiful!
Thank you so much @aprilpeerless! I'm glad you enjoyed them :)
These sunsets definitely deserved their own post Lynn!! You picked the most beautiful ones! Lucky girl that you can watch them anytime you wish! :)
Have a lovely day and thank you for sharing!
I feel so so fortunate @delishtreats! Honestly, this one was spectacular, but almost every single night, I take a few moments to watch it because it's really very stunning, unless of course there's cloud cover! The tropics really are amazing for that!
Thanks for stopping by too :)

Red sky in the morning sailors take warning, red sky at night sailors delight, or I think that is how the old saying goes, so here's to a nice day for you.
That is how the saying goes, or the weather just cooperated with the saying haha Either way, it was another perfect day here :)
Amazing pictures of the sunshine, nature is so beautiful.
Thank you @shaheerbari! Mother Nature really is the best artist :)
Lovely pinks in the sky! Incredibly soothing to look at...
Thank you @bengy! Just picture these photos when your toddler is keeping you up at night :)
Shhh! We are out of that stage! Don't jinx me!
Hooray!!! Knock on wood, throw salt over your shoulder ... whatever it takes, I hope it continues :)
Vodka in the evening drink...
hahaha no judgement here buddy! On long trips that included a plane ride, I used to slip mine a little cough syrup :)
Oh, that's a revelation! That would have been great for our last trip to Australia... Let's just say the return was a nightmare that will forever be on her permanent record...
Some says sky is the limit..but i say sky has no limit. The beautiful sunst make the glow in every colour. I have few pics where the sky is crystal shining during sun set....and you have catured like every color in it👌

A true vanilla sky- magnificent! The skies we get can sometimes get that way but it’s most likely from all of the air pollution here. I could watch a the sun go down every day if that’s the sky it leaves us with :) Nice share!
Thank you so much @puravidaville! I feel so so fortunate because almost every single night, I take a few moments to watch the sun set because it's really very stunning, unless of course there's cloud cover. The tropics really are amazing for that!
and eww stinky air pollution fake colored sky haha
Totally- it’s the perfect ending to any day.
I know, we also have a ton of chemtrails…🤦🏼♀️
This is a great example of the beauty that is in our world if you stop to look at it you will get a feeling that takes over your body. It is really amazing. Thanks for sharing I am sure this was better to see.
Thank you @stever82! Real life always turns out better than the photos :) And you're so right; I don't know how people can't stop and look in awe, when the sky looks like it did that night! So much beauty around us all of the time!

I love photos of the sun behind clouds. These are really stunning. Such beautiful hues of reds, yellows, pinks, and blues. Wonderful!
aww thank you so much @blockurator :) I feel as though the photos never really capture it all properly ... or perhaps it's the photographer :)
Certainly not the photographer.
awww thank you @blockurator! I guess most of us were blessed with eyes to witness it and remember it too, as opposed to trying to capture it as a photo. Mother Nature wasn't meant to be hemmed in like that haha
It makes me think of all the parents at their children's plays, recitals etc. with their phones going as opposed to simply watching and enjoying.
ha ha yeah, true that.
Absolutely stunning @lynncoyle1. I love beautiful sunsets.
Thank you very much @jusipassetti :) I appreciate that! How can you not love them, right?! Most nights they're so beautiful here; we really are very fortunate!
It’s amazing how the colors change every second. Mother Nature is amazing. Great shots my dear, thank you for sharing!
Thank you @starjewel! It was even better in "real" life, as you can well imagine. It's times like that where I wished I'd had a proper camera and not just my phone :)
Wow! Those look amazing!!
Just another reason to plan a trip here some day! Almost every night it's spectacular :)
All such beautyfull photos <333 I can imagine how delightful it was to see in person. thank you for sharing :D
Hey thank you so much @thereikiforest! Yes, it's always way more beautiful in person; it's difficult to really capture Mother Nature at her finest! :)
That is sooo true! I see so many faces in the trees, but the pictures hardly ever capture the true glory <333 :)
Clouds really add some extra something to the sunsets, when in certain positions and sizes. I have seen some similar last summer at the beach.
Hey there @thegoliath :) You're so right ... the clouds really do add so much to it all. I'm glad you can enjoy them too; I'm always shocked when people stop looking or being in awe by it all.
Thanks for stopping by!!
Oh I love sunsets.. and I can imagine you enjoy them a lot ! It's crazy how they can change in only minutes right?
Thank you @anouk.nox, and yes, I get to enjoy them almost every night! It's incredible to see them so often, and you're right, how quickly the colors change is crazy!
After the storm always seems to bring amazing colour to the sky, lovely photography share @lynncoyle1
#steemitbloggers
So true @joanstewart!!! It's like the sky is celebrating too :)
Wow! Those photos of that sunset are totally awesome! I had heard that sunsets in Playa del Carmen were spectacular and you have proven this to be true!
Thank you @cecicastor! No kidding! They really are spectacular every night, unless of course there's cloud cover. It really is amazing :)
Amazing! Many stunning faces indeed!
So nice. I love western sunsets.
Thanks buddy! I'm amazed how every night there's such a beautiful sunset:)
