Third and last week of the same extraordinary sunset.
Please do enlarge them, you will be rewarded.
not content with gentle washes, now the highlights come into
play
streaks of blinding gold career across the sky
mutating, softening into pink on blue and
ever so slowly deepening into the purple and blue
of oncoming night. A ghostly whorl of white among the darkening
clouds
as darkness turns the evening into the dreamy blue stillness
of the night.
If you have not enlarged any up to now, at least enlarge the last
one to get the full force of that magical blue.
My thanks to the SkyWatch team for the opportunity to take part
in this wonderful meme.
There is just about every colour of the spectrum in there somewhere Arija.
