Windy sunset

40mph winds gusting to 50mph made this evening interesting at the summit, and certainly stopped any serious attempt at taking decent photos. The sunset was nice which has been unusual so far this year so took a quick shot while trying to stay out of the really icy blasts. I'd have liked to get more in on the right hand side but all you would see is the wall of UKIRT which I was using as shelter from the wind!

Ha, clipping of the view due to ETTR!

I love the clouds! Both their shape and the color of the sunset make this a fascinating sky!

Parv - I had to look that one up, but I get it! UKIRT really was in the way!

Keera - I adore clouds - think I've been this way since I was a little kid as my father was a meteorologist and I still remember the cloud recognition book he brought home for me as a young child one day!
