Skywatch Friday
Sunset in the Similkameen
And the moon hangs like a pendant under an apricot cloud in the south western sky
To the East the sun's rays catch the top of a potential thunderhead with a heavenly glow
and to the North a few cloudy fish swim in a subdued sky
Some nights, after a hot cloudless day, the sun goes to bed weary with its constant blazing, and doesn't bother putting on a show, but when a few clouds linger around he is seduced into creating ethereal fireworks for us mortals.

I've decided your sunset skies there in the Similkameen are some of the most scenic in the world. The colors, shapes and textures are ever-changing. The moon looks like a jewel in the sky. Have a wonderful weekend, Hildred.

Wonderful sequence of shots. I love them all but I think my favorite is the one where the moon is hanging like a pendant. Perfect description you gave of that too.
Those peach clouds of every size are so lovely against your blue evening sky. What captures! Thanks for sharing the beauty.

Awesome shots, that cloud looks as if its lost in the first one-lovely colours. Thanks for sharing:)

I would like to keep this gorgeous apricot cloud. A sky everyone wants, it is so beautiful.
I also admire your beautiful garden.

Sometimes I think God spends a lot of his time Watercoloring the sky.
He really know how to mix colors.

I love the moon, it is so clear and radiant. Beautiful pictures!
Beautiful glowing sky. And your glowing words -- just perfect.
We are visiting our granddaughter and gs-in-law and their new forever family -- our great grandsons. Wonderful meeting the boys (and seeing their parents) But as I wind down after a busy day, I certainly appreciate the opportunity to see your peaceful skies. I haven't had time to look up!
How wonderful is the way you describe a sunset:"the sun goes to bed weary with its constant blazing, and doesn't bother putting on a show, but when a few clouds linger around he is seduced into creating ethereal fireworks for us mortals."
That's very poetical!
