Foto Friday



A couple of years ago, the sky went wild here. Not like the Northern Lights wild, but all pink wild. Several lenticular clouds, like the one in the picture, formed; zig-zag shaped clouds raced across the hillsides; and a pink wash covered the deep-blue sky at sunset. This was a magnificent nature phenomenon that I was lucky to have noticed. Since then I always keep an eye on the sky at sunset.

 I came across this cloud formation when I was looking for the Halloween pictures the other day. I will look for the rest and we can have a pink cloud show some Friday soon.

    No telling how much beauty we miss because we don't look.

    Clouds are Mother Nature's paintings. Thanks, Inger, for sharing.

    Very pretty. Love the paint job on the clouds. We are now going into the pink morning skies here in Alaska when I see some pretty spectacular color. In the summer it's too light for that.

    Hello Inger!! To start, THANK YOU for your kindness and friendship! I always enjoy getting your comments on my blog!

    Second, I love this photo! I was looking at the clouds the day after the hurricane this week and wished I had my camera, some were as incredible as this one!

    I do hope all is well with you and your week is ending on a good note!

    Dear Inger, the cloud formation and the color are so unusual that at first I thought the photograph must have been edited and colored. Wow! And Double Wow! Thanks for sharing . . . and for noticing and taking the photo in the first place. Peace.

    Vilken fin bild!! Härliga färger. Vad vacker din nya header bild är. Jag måste göra en ny men har lite problem att få in en ny då det säger jag inte har utrymme mer...
    Ha en fin helg!

    That's amazing! It looks a bit like a flying saucer, doesn't it? I remember the sunsets in AZ could be the most amazing colors.
