Fiery Sky.


"Let me, O let me bathe my soul in colours;
let me swallow the sunset and drink the rainbow. "

Oh wow! Absolutely stunning. These sunsets make me want and wish to be able to paint well, but I could never capture the wonder or magic.

Beautiful photo!

Did you get any nasty storms this past week? Our area got hit really hard with a big hail/rain storm. The crops around here look thrashed. Fortunately we escaped without losing a tree! (and we've got LOTS of trees)

Astrid - We are on the far east side, so we watched every single storm for the past few weeks dissolve right before it got here and go north & south instead. We so desperately wanted rain, but had only little sprinkles & drizzles or short bursts. The lightning storms and clouds were amazing each time, though, as we could see where the storms went by, *just* missing us. Yesterday it finally rained nice and long - ahhhh.

Glad you made it safely through the bigger storms - I heard that there was a LOT of damage in some areas!
