Vanishing sun's bright presence
But this too shall pass

Such stunning, glowing sky colours. Beautiful photos.
Sorry you had difficulty finding my blog post among all my blogs. That is why I use a direct link to the relevant post in the SWF meme. If you use the link there, there is no problem. Have a great weekend.

Bill said it looked like a tear in the sky. Could have been a scene from Jim Carrey' s The Truman Show. :)
