Sky Watch Friday


Just before 10pm last Monday, I saw this cloud gently lit by the setting sun. I took three photos at five-minute intervals.




For more Sky Watch pictures, visit our host at
Wiggers World
and have a good weekend.

Nice weekend to you from Anemone in Norway.

Your 5 mins intervals were timed just right. These are fantastic images over the houses. Bouncing light and shimmering colours. Excellent set I would have been proud to have snapped.

Unfortunately Tom is on bed rest today and for the first time you are stuck with me. I have my orders to visit as many as I can, and make sure the links are working and everyone is being good. I am sure you are all being good.
Tom and I thank you for Sky-Watching this week. I am sure that as soon as Tom's heart beat settles down he will be back here and visiting.

Very nice! By 10 pm we are all dark. Your shots look like around 8:45 - 9 pm for us.

I only posted 2 photos, but just as you have, I too, wanted to show how rapidly the sky changes at sunset. How neat is that?

Your sunrises are perfect moments!

10 p.m. sunset! I used to live where, in the summer, the sun would stay out late, but now it seems s alien. Year 'round, sunset here is more or less 7 p.m. and sunrise is right around 6 a.m. -- weather also almost never changes. Which means our clouds almost never change. I enjoy the drama unfolding in your clouds. Very beautiful.

Those are fantastic pics.

Nice views of minute to minute changes. Lovely!

Cath said...

Lovely colours above the clouds. Well captured.

Great sunset shots!
Have a nice weekend.

Roan said...

I can't decide whether I like sunrise or sunset best. I love the way the clouds move during the five minute intervals. Great idea.

Barb said...

Your skies stay bright quite late! Stunning shots. I confess that I have a much easier time with sunrises than sunsets. I can never seem to stay up that late. ;)

Very beautiful :-)

Hallo from north Norway. Last week I saw all Sky Watch Friday photos and they were all great, and I hope to see them all this week too. I love to travel around the world this way.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful sky watch and have a great weekend!

Beautiful colors in your sky!

Those are some really lovely shots. Do you get to look at scenes like that very often? If so, hooray for you! Just beautiful.
