I love finding beauty in my own backyard. Who knew that the coldest night of the year would bring out the most beautiful sunset? Braved the below zero temperatures to capture this beautiful moment during #goldenhour When snapping pics of the sunset patience is key, even when you're freezing cold it's worth the wait. #colorful #bestof5
