May 27: Sunset over the Southern Ocean

The beautiful Macquarie Island sunset... at 2:40 pm in the afternoon.  So frequent are the fronts of rain laden clouds that sweep across the Island here, that rarely do we see a sunset.  I was wandering around outside doing bits and pieces and  saw this scene unfolding.. The last photo I took was at 3:15pm and it was all dark by 3:30pm.
