My Sunset Sky

Sunset from my bathroom window, by LadyDuck

Rachel Lovejoy has started this interesting challenge and here is my contribution. Yesterday we had a lot of rain during all the day, with also a short hail thunderstorm, not strong enough to cause damages. Just before the sunset, the rain has stopped and a strong wind from north has started to blow. Looking outside the window of our bathroom, that looks toward west, I had the pleasure to see this wonderful sunset. Part of the sky was still dark and cloudy, and the sun, going down behind the mountain, had painted the clouds with vibrant colors. Have you joined the challenge? Show us your beautiful sky.

That purple color is the most striking in my eyes. Certainly this color is not commonly seen in the sky.

This is vibrant red, we never have such an intense red color, because the sun goes down pretty high mountains.

Did you uploaded a photo with your comment? I cannot see it. Possibly it's too big and needs to be resized.

@jillybean1222 I have found nowhere the maximum allowed dimension of a photo. I know that I have to reduce mine of about 50% before uploading.

How beautiful! I never seem to get very good sunset photos. The cell cameras I have just don’t do the beauty of them well enough.

I use digital cameras, I turn off the AUTO option and set the parameters to be able to capture exactly what I see.

@LadyDuck The colors really are different than what you usually see in a sunset. I need to start paying more attention and start taking pictures of our sunset here.

There were still clouds after the storm and the sun tinted them with many different shades.
