    Yes, I like these kind of smoke and flames 🙂 🙂

      I thought this one would appeal to you.

        I’m collecting green at the moment. Got to stay ahead of the game 🤣. Good win for Novak 💕

          I wasn’t too bothered about the final as I don’t particularly like either player. A shame Medvedev couldn’t do a bit more. Roll on the French Open!

          Neither do I but it was a good time of day to watch and I expected good tennis. The first set was brilliant. 🙂 🙂

          Yes. Pity it didn’t go to more sets.

    Almost like a bushfire on the horizon.

      That’s what I thought, it’s hard to see on the photo, but that bottom cloud was rimmed in gold.

      A fiery sky! In a good way.

    Amazing. Makes me think of Daphne Du Maurier and Jamaica Inn somehow.

      Mmm… OK 😁

    Lovely. And it could multi-task as a rich yellow too.

      Now why didn’t I think of that. I could have done a two in one post today!

        Multi-tasking is what we women do best 😉

    A super sky well captured.

      Just point the camera and press the button John – or in this case the phone. The sky painter does all the work. 😊

    Fire in the sky!

      It certainly looked like it. I was keeping my eye on the sky that evening as there was a lot of black clouds around.

        And patience paid off

          Often you think it is all over and then five minutes later the colours just erupt! Like the one tomorrow, which will be the last for now as I haven’t seen a sunset in a couple of weeks!

          Ah, OK…..I must say I haven’t been watching the evening sky

    I love the second image – it’s stunning. There is such drama in the contrast between the fiery sky and the dark, menacing clouds. 🙂

      Sometimes you are never quite sure whether the sky will clear enough for the setting sun to ‘do its thing’ so I was watching this carefully. No dramatic colours, but that last sunburst lit the clouds.

        It was worth the wait!

    That’s a corker, Jude. Quite a ‘scary sky’! 🙂
    Best wishes, Pete. x

      Yes, the sun appeared to set fire to the clouds that evening. Never the same sunset.

    Hmmmm…..Sunset Skies – that sounds like so perfect “S” words to me Jude! Beautiful scene. We didn’t get much sun this month down here either. Fortunately February is coming to a close and so is our dreary, rainy weather 🤞

    1. Heyjude says:
      February 21, 2021 at 15:39

      Nothing more grim than day after day of grey skies. It’s normal here though during January and February. I am hoping for some sunnier days to arrive shortly though!

        We broke through after 3 weeks of rain and gray skies. Yesterday’s sun was like an amazing gift. We take our sunny skies for granted here – hopefully we’ll learn to appreciate it a bit better now!

          I appreciate every single one we get!
