I spotted this brilliantly red sunset while out grocery shopping and captured it with my cell camera.

The sky was ablaze with the vivid colour from this sunset and certainly brightened my shopping trip!
Happy Saturday.

Happy Saturday.
Yesterday we had a very spring-like day.

Windless, 10C (50F), and sun that had a little oomph going on.

It was lovely to sit in the gentle warmth and just enjoy.
My apologies to all the people throughout North America who are presently buried in snow or dealing with slush and cold rain and wind, but once spring starts, it does have a way of rolling forward, even if there’s a bit of to-ing and to-ing. It’s coming.
Day closes …

… into evening.

Happy Saturday.
The sky changed from a snow-laden grey …

… to bluish-cloudy dispersal …

… to yet more scattering and diffusion …

… and finally to the lovely pink glow of sunset.

Happy Thursday.
A lovely February day …

… not to be missed …

… from morning until evening.
Happy Thursday.
The sun breaks through …

… the clearing overcast above Okanagan Lake.
Happy Saturday.

We’re still very cloudy …

… very rainy …

… and very windy.

But it’s relatively warm, so at least there’s no snow shovelling and we definitely have it a lot better than many on this continent who are dealing with some heavy-duty winter.
Whatever your weather, I hope you have a good Monday.
We are presently socked in by a very grey, heavy overcast accompanied by rain and wind so I chose to post these photos from a couple of weeks ago when we had a few clear but cooler days.

At least our daylight hours are increasing so even though we’re grey, we’re not experiencing complete darkness at 4:30!

And in other good news, now that January is finished, spring might start showing itself a little.
Happy Sunday; happy February.
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.
