Yesterday, I got to see both.
Yesterday morning, it had gotten cold (a good sign for clear skies) but I didn't want to stand outside. So I missed the best of the pre sunrise reddish color.
But I did get to see this before I headed to work. I need to explain that there are six Bradford Pear trees that I like to track through the seasons. They are just about the only landscaping left from a flooded historic factory building on this property that was torn down several years ago.
From the east, just before sunrise.
And this view from the west.
Then, when I got out of work, the sun had just set, but I was treated to this.
And this.
Nothing unlucky about posting this on Friday the 13th. I hope we get to see the sky today, but the prediction is rain. (At least it isn't snow.)
As always, each Friday I join the skywatching bloggers who are part of Yogi's Skywatch Friday.
Nice skies,looks like a lucky Friday the 13th
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, it was so cloudy here in Hornell late last night/early that we couldn't catch the Full Moon, sadly.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous skies. Wishing you more of these! Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Friday the 13th had a treat in mind for you, some beautiful sky views.
ReplyDeleteI just saw the most beautiful sky this evening. I love winter evening skies!
ReplyDeleteNow, that's an idea for a project. Photograph the same site, like those trees, every day (or every week) at the same time. At the end of a year, you'd have quite the record. You could probably even compile them into a short video...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, subtle changes as evening comes on!
ReplyDeleteBright beautiful sky
ReplyDeleteHow stunning!
