Sunset glow-clouds …
… light up the evening …
… before the muffled moon takes over.
Happy Monday.
Into the Evening

Orange Skies
After a cloudy, rainy day …
… the sun pushed through enough …
… to highlight these lofty cirrus clouds …
… in an aggressive orange hue. It was an amazing show but didn’t last long.
Happy Thursday.
Grey
We had a sun break but now it’s a return to the grey although the feature photo shows the effect of evening’s blue hour on the overcast. The daytime photo from below shows how very grey it actually was.
We have snow at the 700 metre (2396 ft) level but none here at the valley bottom.
It’s Monday. It’s grey. But I hope you have a good day anyway.
Layers
Although it was reasonably warm out, it was otherwise an extremely windy, rainy and overcast day – seeing across the street was about the most of it – until evening arrived and the weather started to break.
First it was like this …
… but then the cloud layers started to spread …
… and the sun began to peek out.
It was still windy, but a clearing sky was rather wonderful.
Happy Saturday.
Soft Light
We have recently had some very soft evening light.
It has been a lovely time of day, windless and calm …
… with some thinish clouds adding a veiled, mellow luminosity.
For a few seconds a strong pinkish tone emerged (this picture is completely unretouched). It was likely caused by light scattering of the blue and violet wavelengths allowing the pink, orange and red wavelengths to illuminate the clouds.
It didn’t last long but was very pretty.
Happy Thursday.
January Sun
We have had some lovely January sun peeking through the …
… breaking stratus and cumulus clouds that constantly swirl and join and break again …
… while the snow stays properly in the mountains …
… to be enjoyed from a distance.
Happy Saturday.
Cloud Play
We’ve had some interesting cloud formations lately and I’ve enjoyed watching the sky.
We’ve had the very layered …
… the very puffy …
… and also the very setting sun super lit!
Happy Monday.
Solstice Cloud Play
When the sun breaks through in winter …
… the clouds are constantly trying to …
… re-establish themselves.
This is our season, they adamantly say.
But the sun does try its best.
Happy Solstice. Our days are about to become longer. 🙂
Sky Scenes
After days of bucketing rain we’ve had some glimmers of sky and sun, something to definitely enjoy in the moment since we don’t know when we’re going to see them again!
At 5C (41F) it was rather chilly but much less so than in the mountains where all that snow is residing!
Despite the clouds still blowing around a bit it was great to see the sky and know that the rain won’t last forever.
I enjoyed watching the interplay of colours among the wind, cloud, sky and setting sun, but after a bit I needed to move on as I was becoming chilled.
Some brisk walking got me warmed up again but I had a nice hot chocolate when I got home.
Happy Sunday.
October Weather
Lately we’ve had lots of rain with only fleeting moments of sun …
… leading to some rather dramatic skies …
… with scudding, luminous grey clouds that eventually obscured …
… and began to enclose the sky once more.
Happy Wednesday.
