Sunsets Photo Gallery by Jay Wright

Sunset watchers gather to celebrate the close of another day

This is what it's all about — This is what it’s all about

This way to another gorgeous sunset

One thing that is guaranteed: no two sunsets are alike

You've got to love a storm in the gulf that brings waves into the beach — You’ve got to love a storm in the gulf that brings waves into the beach

Wonder how we lined the sun up perfectly in the life guard window?

A picture-perfect moment with live music

The sunset leaves a golden cast on the sea oats holding the sand in place on the dunes — The sunset leaves a golden cast on the sea oats and the sand dunes

A cluster of 7 palm trees watching the rays of sunlight beam from the sky

The curtain of the night sky will soon drop down to the horizon

Surreal clouds appear to fly through the sky just as the sun sets

A vivid orange sunset paints the sky and clouds

Below the palm trees, we celebrate the close of another beautiful day

Follow the path between the sand dunes to a breathtaking sunset

It almost reminds us of a lighthouse and its rotating beacon

Contrails and sunsets ... what a great combination — Contrails and sunsets … what a great combination

Who could believe that one of the "palm" trees would be exactly in front of the sunset — Who could believe that one of the “palm” trees would be exactly in front of the sunset

Find that color of the sky in your crayon box would you!

This view is normally limited only to Palm Pavilion Inn hotel guests so I thought I would share

Is that a halo behind the Palm Pavilion?

An idyllic setting ... sand dunes, sea oats and restless clouds, leaving one to wonder ... will we see the sun set tonight? — An idyllic setting … sand dunes, sea oats and restless clouds, leaving one to wonder … will we see the sun set tonight?

You can tell the time of year by where the sun sets on the shore

Palm Pavilion to go

A front row seat to a perfect sunset

While the signs welcomes the Phillies, I can pretty much assure you, they didn't bicycle down from Philly — While the signs welcomes the Phillies, I can pretty much assure you, they didn’t bicycle down from Philly

The lower clouds ... like meringue on a lemon pie — The lower clouds … like meringue on a lemon pie

Unless you can see it for yourself, you just can't imagine how beautiful Palm Pavilion sunsets are — Unless you can see it for yourself, you just can’t imagine how beautiful Palm Pavilion sunsets are

Wispy clouds provide a sense of peacefulness at sunset

Nothing better than hanging out at the beach

... not sure what's more fun ... the diversity of colors each sunset or the different cloud formations — … not sure what’s more fun … the diversity of colors each sunset or the different cloud formations

So happy I could capture the Palm Pavilion Inn in this photo - named Best of St. Pete/Clearwater - Best Boutique Hotel — So happy I could capture the Palm Pavilion Inn in this photo – named Best of St. Pete/Clearwater – Best Boutique Hotel

The colors remind me of those in Salavdor Dali's The Hallucinogenic Toreador on display at his museum in St. Pete — The colors remind me of those in Salavdor Dali’s The Hallucinogenic Toreador on display at his museum in St. Pete

The sun slips behind the clouds giving us another awesome sunset

Love the way the sun tries to hide behind The Palm's trees — Love the way the sun tries to hide behind The Palm’s trees

In just a second the sun will drop into the Gulf of Mexico

Now how is it that sailboat always manages to get in my shot?

The sun sits high in the sky readying its approach to dip into the gulf

Each sunset is as different as a snowflake

Our lifeguard stands are Clearwater Beach's version of a lighthouse — Our lifeguard stands are Clearwater Beach’s version of a lighthouse

Sometimes the sun sets directly behind The Palm

A brilliant sun reflects on the blue sky above

A colorful orange sunset that blends into a Fuschia-colored sky

Painted silver streaks in the sky at sunset

The sunset casts a warm shadow on the Palm Pavilion

Facing east with the Gulf of Mexico at my back, I call this one "cloud cover" — Facing east with the Gulf of Mexico at my back, I call this one “cloud cover”

One of my all time favorites ... a picture is worth a 1000 words — One of my all time favorites … a picture is worth a 1000 words

Who can predict the colors that will appear each night?

The sunset just about ready to peek out from the clouds

Somehow Mother Nature always manages to find a way to deliver

A perfect end to the day

Hanging around 20 minutes after sunset proves some great photo ops

We’d like to thank our long-time friend and amateur photographer Jay Wright for allowing us to share his sunset images. We applaud his ability to capture Mother Nature during her finest hour of the day. It is much appreciated.

If you’re at The Palm around sunset, it’s likely he’s there, too, catching up with friends and grabbing a few pictures. Stop and say hello if you have the chance.
