Photo of the Day: Loudoun Valley Sunset

Once in awhile we have some great sunsets in Virginia and once in awhile I just happen to be in the right place to photograph one.

        I like this photo so much it inspired me to write a poem. Would it be alright with you if I used your picture along with my poem on my blog? I will of course give you credit for taking the gorgeous photograph.

            Thank you so much I really appreciate it! I may be my own worst critic, however I don’t think my amateur poetry will astonish people the way your photos do, lol. Thank being said, I am honored that you are looking forward to reading it. So here you go 🙂 http://wp.me/p2cTHb-ao

      I know it’s a rarity, and when it does happen, all the trees are blocking the view.

    Fantastic Photograph, the colors are beautiful. I was wondering if you offered any prints of your photography that people could buy ? If not now, then perhaps do you consider selling any in the future ? ( for personal use such as decor ).

    • Mark Routt

      Bre, I do sell my prints. You can view them and a price list on my web site markroutt.com. Some of my recent images have not been posted there yet but they are also for sale. Thanks for all the nice compliments!
