    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!

    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.

    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.
