Some of our sunsets are what the writer Barbara
Kingsolver describes as “five alarm sunsets.”
Those set the entire sky aflame from end to end with red and orange
colors. Other sunsets are what I call “soft
fires.” Those kind of sunsets merely
tinge the cloudbottoms above the far mountains with a blush of colors. Between these two types of sunsets are an infinity
of cloud, landscape, and color possibilities.
If you have ever watched for the entire time when the
sun is slicing down against the horizon, you know that the colors and the whole
production changes by the second. Posted
today are a couple of photographs I captured from the back of my house last
night. Not a five alarm variety, but
somewhat ominous at the end.
Love those sunsets! Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteI love standing out there and watching the colors change.
