Yellow and …
Yellow? Maybe orangy-yellow, but the colours in the sky late this afternoon reminded me of the Cold Play song from a few years ago. 🙂
Portal into the Light
We had a warmer-than-spring-weather day today, and by this afternoon the valley looked hazy and dull. Then the whole appearance changed.
A huge cane fire in the valley sent smoke wafting westward, across toward the mountain, helping out the sunset in turning the sky smoky-orange in colour.
The sugar cane fire was a douzy! Rarely do we see the fires this big, and it burned for longer than usual as well. The valley quickly filled with smoke, and as I took a photo of the striking appearance of the sky, I couldn’t help but notice the dark clouds accumulated over the mountain, the dark near-nighttime valley below, and the inviting portal of light shining behind the mountain. 🙂
Storm Warning
We had word this morning to expect a substantial storm this afternoon. Just after lunch time, the thunder and clouds rolled in. I closed all the windows and doors, and waited.
Nothing happened. Not here at least, although we heard later that two nearby villages had a hail storm. But here, not even a single drop of rain. The storm was a fizzer.
Two hours later, this was our sunset sky.
