SkyWatch ~ Sunset Contrails


The sun has set, yet leaves it's passing written in the sky


like a plume of golden smoke


dispersed by a passing breeze . . .



Time for more skywatching, click on the Logo, be brave and
join in the fun or just go and feast your eyes on the skies of others.

    These are mind-boggling gorgeous, Arija! I do love those pink contrails and such incredible blue skies! I'm so glad you got these and thank you for sharing the beauty! Hope you are doing well -- thanks for the very, very funny piece you sent me earlier! As a former teacher, I do relate to the unexpected things kids can come up with!!

    Neato! I'd love to seek the end of that. Maybe there'll be a pot of gold there. No wait, that's for rainbows.

    Hi & Greetings. This is an amazing & awesome series of pictures. Looks like you have captured some astonishing phenomenon in the sky. Is it a tornado or simply a cloud formation.

    We have lots of contrails around here, and some of them surely do present with interesting forms depending on the winds. Good catch Arija.
    Hope you are having a good week.
