Eastern Glow at Sunset, 14 April 2006
I took this last Friday evening. I’d been standing outside, talking with my neighbor across the gate (like ya’ do). I was facing west, and had been lamenting internally that the sunset was non-existant. One minute it was hovering boringly above the horizon, then “plop” it sank. Nary a hint of pink or orange or purple or anything at all. Hrmph.
Then, as she was leaving, I turned to go back inside. Oh my. The entire eastern sky was glowing a soft pink. It was kind of subtle, so I didn’t think it would show up well in a picture. I intended to just hang out and enjoy it while it lasted, but then Harriet decided it was time to eat rightthisninute. I took her inside to feed her, then went back outside to do some more sky watching. In the few moments I was indoors, the pink had deepened and intensified. I got my camera and took a few pictures.
