Skywatch Friday


A dramatic sunset at the end of a perfect spring day on Speyside. The two man-made silhouettes are a whisky distillery chimney at the left, and an electricity pole sort of thing (the technical name of which I obviously don't know) towards the right.



Other skies around the world are at Skywatch Friday.

  1. Lovely colours you have here. The dark cloud serves to emphasise the wonderful oranges.

  2. Dramatic is correct. Those dark clouds are a bit scary.

  15. Linda: We've already commented on this delightful assortment of clouds. Now, we wonder, is everyone in Scotland still talking about native daughter: Susan Boyle? She sure seemed to put her wee village on the map!

  17. Thanks for the comments - I appreciate them.

    In answer to Greensboro Daily Photo's question about Susan Boyle, I have to admit that I've been rather cut off from mainstream life over the past week, but the Susan Boyle phenomenon is still pretty inescapable.

  21. There's more drama in those two photos than in the whole Lord of the Rings thrilogy.
    Absolutely wonderfully dark and menacing with fire coloured edges. makes me think of the frase: "Hell hath no fury ..."
    Should be featured in some fantasy film as a sky over a particularly evil place.
