Really love the colors of that last shot. Like the clouds are slowly ebbing in... love the lamp post too.

SWF Rocks - I love seeing the world's skies this way ;)

Kim said...

I love all of the layers of color in the sky of the last shot and the brightness of the sun in the other two. Great Job!

Carletta said...

That first one sure looks like a hazy hot day.
Love the last one!

rachel said...

this is gorgeous! the colors in the sky (pastel-like) are just so pretty!

Craver Vii said...

Hey, I saw that same sky up here (near Chicago) just a week ago. If I remember right, we got rained on, too.

The middle shot looks like a laser cannon blasting through the trees. It looks plenty red to me!

Oooo... I'm seeing the fiery red of the sun!! We've been getting some pretty wicked sunsets from the forest fires but the mountains are too big for me to capture the sunsets... LOL

Loved the last one. So pink.

I scrolled back and looked your photos from last week too. The hole in the clouds is so neat. I really enjoyed that.

You've done great work here, Lilli.

Hi! I don't know about the not being able to get the red sun. I love the second photo with the red sun and the stop sign. The colors in the third are spectacular. Lisa

Andrea said...

Very nice sky watch shot.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Pat - Arkansas said...

Wow, you really got a red sun in that second photo! Nice! Good Sky Watch.

Thanks for visiting my SWF post. While I hated to lose the trees, the process was fascinating, and I'm glad I didn't have to do it.

Hello from Colorado. Nice SWF pictures.

Joyce's Journey said...

Beautiful pictures of the sky! Nice work!!

me ann my camera said...

Its always a tricky work of camera art to capture the beautiful reds and pinks at the end of the day. Nice.

Anonymous said...

very nice - the last is my favorite.

I'm stretching towards your red hot sun for the warmth! The bottom one is glowing :)

The sedond on looks like you got it better. But none the less great sky watch photos. After all it is about the sky and how it never looks the same.
Keep on shooting and eventually you will get what you want.
Cheers

Great shots, Lilli and Nevada. I love the color of the sky.

DrowseyMonkey-Photos said...

I love the colours, especially in the last one :)

Lara said...

I use a lower ISO (max. 400) and the results are pretty nice. I am not a professional photographer, thou...

Tom said...

Ha! could we swop some of your sun for some of our rain? :O)

Thank you for joining the sky watch team on their new venture… I hope you enjoy your sky watching and come back for more.

Catherine said...

Great sunset. Wonderful colors, according to me. Nobody has to publsh perfect shots, otherwise I wouldn't participate.
I like the first one, this kind of fog (real or not) gives an atmosphere.
Have a nice week end, Lili.

Anne-Berit said...

Your photos are great!

Janet said...

That's what I call a fireball! Nice.

nonizamboni said...

Wonderful red sun!
And the clouds on the bottom photo are my favorite: those that defy a color. Is it lavender, or pink, or gold? Lovely work.

marley said...

Happy SWF.

Anonymous said...

Nice shots. In the 2nd one it almost looks as if the sun is mimicking the stop sign.

Babs (Beetle) said...

I love the bottom photo. The sky looks layered.

Lea said...

Roan said...

I like the first shot best. I enjoy the smokiness of haze.
