    These all have great mood and each one evokes a different feeling for me. Four fantastic examples of "Dark"

    Excellent "dark" photos, Kay. I hope you're all having a warm weekend (indoors, that is if it's snowing...) (((Hugs))) Jo

    I love the time between sundown and dark. Wayne and I flew into Fort McMurray a long time ago. Back when we traveled for summer vacations. - Margy

    Don't know if you know; but I clicked on the link you posted for the "Mary's Mixed Bag" prompt at IGRT, and it went nowhere...so I was not able to comment.

    Great collection for the theme! Love the shot of the moon taken from your home :) I've always wanted to visit Russia as I have relatives from there. It would an adventure.

    I especially like those last two... the glorious sunset followed by that mysterious moon photo.

    My 'dark' photos don't ever really work. I think I need to pay my cameras some real and serious attention.

    Like those colours Kay and I don't think I've ever seen a green morning, just felt a bit green occasionally.

    @ Mary — yes, I know. I felt I should remove my poem. Sorry about having nothing for your prompt now.

    These are all wonderful photographs showing darkness around the world. I think my favorites are midnight in Russia and the last one of the moon in Alberta.

    Oh, dramatic shots. :D I'm imagining that moon from a page of a book. Here's mine.
