Sky in flames

6 September 2005

495
I happened to glance out of my study window to see a bright orange sky complete with the ghostly outlines of trees, caused by the sodium light from the streetlamps reflecting off of the haar that had rolled in from the north sea. It really looked as if the sky was on fire, so I had to get into the garden with the tripod to take some long exposures. I think this one turned out rather well.


We had some lovely light last year too


other sizes: small medium original auto

The plant I most hate in the world! Shame it's not burning to match the sky! :-)

You needed a break, and look at the gift right out your window. Beautiful.

BTW, Thanks for all your comments. I don't have a clue about the name of the flowers in english :-s
Take care!

Red sky at night, sailor's delight. Hope that means table compiler's delight too. :) And this is really red. It must've have been amazing to see. The photo captures it so well, I wish I had been there.
