weekly photo challenge: twinkle

Posted on Updated on

This was a tricky theme but we think we found a picture that twinkled! Don’t look at the sun, look at the reflection off the water 🙂

We took this in Kusadasi, Turkey. We have used a photo of the same horizon when we first participated in the challenge.  Then an hour later from that photo, this happened.

One of the most incredible sunsets we’ve seen 🙂

    Ha, Peggy and I got some great sunset photos at Kusadasi as well. Now I will have to go back and look them up. They do indeed twinkle. 🙂 –Curt

    Beautiful. I noticed you mentioned the cricket…what a satisfying ending and quite exciting too! There’s nothing I like better than beating another team at cricket!

      Definitely a very exciting finish for a test match… right to the end! We thought it was all but over by the time it was the last session & how the game just changed 🙂
      Hope you enjoyed your weekend!

      YUNA!!! How are you?? Thank you for your comment and paying us a visit – we MUST return a visit because since travelling we have just been swamped and haven’t visited all the lovely blogs we used to. Will duck on over there now 🙂

        Hi The Wisemongkeys!
        No worries. Me too, life is getting quite busy lately. I do hope I had much spare time to read all those lovely blogs as well. Including yours. All I can do right now is replying messages. 😀

    It occurred to me that a twinkle really needs a video…., but yours manages to twinkle without movement. Well done, as always 🙂

      You are too kind 🙂 We were thrilled to have been able to find this photo where the water does seem to just twinkle 🙂
      Hope you are enjoying the weekend. Watching the cricket by any chance?

      What is it about sunsets that make them so romantically mesmerising??
      Thanks for your comment 🙂

    Wonderful picture again. The photo challenge would be impossible for me as I would spend hours searching for the perfect pic 🙂

      Thank you 🙂 We love these challenges because then it does allow us to revisit photos and moments that sometimes have slipped our minds!
      Enjoy your weekend.
