08-03-04 strange sunset

Well finished work now for the next five days, so we can get the last of the packing up and clearing
done. Only two days now until the removal company arrives, and just three until we're out. I had
originally intended to send the PC to Catherine's Mum's house, but I think it may come with me.
I'm now 7 months into the PAD, and have currently a whole new burst of inspiration, and motivation
to get on and finish it. I knew that if I didn't have the PC handy that I would struggle. So
hopefully I've convinced Catherine, and it will now be coming with us. Not sure how much time I
will have to comment and post over the next few days. I'll get back into the habit from Monday at
the latest. Promise.

But, back to tonight's photo. This was the sunset we were treated to this evening from our living
room window. I wasn't sure whether to run for cover or the camera. Thankfully I made the right choice!

Anyway, its getting late. I had originally intended to watch the texas chainsaw massacre, which
channel 4 are currently showing. But fatigue is getting the better of me, and I think I need to
head to bed.

You are right Dominic, the sunset is strange but the image is great.

Nice sky, must be nice to reach the seven month mark.

Great shot - I like the tree tops in the corner too. Very nicely done. Like you I'd want to take my PC!!

a purple sunset?? :-o

Oooh very dramatic! Sunsets here are mostly orange, very rarely do we see one like this. Hope all goes well with the packing and the move.

Very dramatic,Dom. We don't seem to get these kind of sunsets much down saufh. I like the inclusion of the branches (but not too much) to give scale and contrast.
Chris09-Mar-2005 04:09
Damn, Dom. Fine shot :) Great color and drama.

Such an incredible color. I would have been afraid the end of the world was near.
Leo Charette09-Mar-2005 03:28
What an awesome sky... the purple is incredible. I'll look forward to visiting your post in a few days.

Beautiful colours, good luck with the packing over the next few days, and pleased to hear the PC stays with you!
Karen Leaf09-Mar-2005 01:46
I would have hid under the couch! Good luck with the move Dom, and look forward to the results of your inspirations

Great purple apocolyptic sky, Dom.. I'd have taken the pic, THEN run..
I think taking the PC is a great idea..LOL, but that's only cuz I would perish without mine..
