SkyWatch ~ Sailing into Tonight's Sunset

It started out quite gently, just tinting the sky with pastel tones



then, changing moods, the sky became threatening and vaguely
ominous



before its final great burst of solid colour. The whole experience
was like sailing ove trouble waters.



All photos enlarge with a click.

There are many skies to visit, just click on the Logo.

Thanks to Klaus and the whole SkyWatch Team for creating this
opportunty for all of us to show what we see.

  31. Wonderful sequence of the magnificent sunset. I like the way the colors start out subtle and move into such a vivid splash of color.

    To answer your question about mine, I think I took close to 100 shots. I deleted over half of them after downloading because I don't save shots that are almost the same so I only had 46 left on my computer when I checked.

  32. These skies remind me of the color spectrum of the skies of my childhood which is also similar to the color spectrum of the skies before a hurricane.

    I hope you feel better Arija. Tsup!
