Glow Before Sunset (Skywatch Friday)


One evening last week, the sky took on a strange yellow-orange glow just before sunset. The color of everything outside, such as these crepe myrtles, intensified as if super-saturated. There was a storm to the northeast, so I'm sure the combination of a setting sun and a moving storm system is responsible for the effect.

  3. The varying shades of pink crepe myrtle flowers against the peachy-pink sky make for a spectacular photo. Well done!
