Macro Monday: In the setting sun

I love how everything glows when the sun is just setting on a warm evening.
Twilight, the moment between day and night where it's not quite light and not quite dark.

The suns last rays caught in the mane of my horse just before that moment.
Highlighting every soft little ear hair I neglect to trim off for the same distaste of the bugs that would make her shake her head when she is being ridden in the summer.
Giving me one more glimpse that every brown mane hair on a grey horse is highlighted before falling dark behind the trees and casting an orange glow on the clouds.

Goodnight.

Pretty pictures! I know that when the sun hits Champ and Rina (sorrel and blood bay respectively) their coats shimmer and sparkle brilliantly in the light :o)
