The red sky photo was at dawn. When I first got out of bed I was startled to see that my windows were all glowing red. I was relieved to see when I opened my door that it was only sunrise. So much for "red sky in the morning, sailors warning". The weather was just fine that day.

The sunset photo was the last taken of that dead tree. I hated to see it go.

The last photo is of a "sun dog". At least that is what we call them up here. They are rare and don't last long. It's sort of a rainbow that never got off of the ground. When I first spotted this one in the woods behind our house I thought it was a brush fire starting.

Number 2 is beautiful. I love the tie dye effect of the sky.

In #2, the tree in the foreground provides a pleasing balance to the image. Without the tree, I don't think it would have been as nice. I think I would have cloned out that piece of pine tree peeking out on the left side.

Can not argue with that. Without the tree, or something like it, I would not have taken the shot. I never like to clone if I can avoid it, but you are probably right in this case. Thank for your interest and advise.

Very nice photos. I like #1 and #2 the best. I love that red glow in #1. The tree in #2 gives the photo purpose and meaning. I have taken similar shots. Good job and thanks for sharing. Cheryl

Me too, but when I first saw the light I was afraid it was a fire. It was not nighttime but just at sunset. It takes the sun rays coming in at a shallow angle and a little rain for it to happen. We lost our shop to a fire in July so I was a little paranoid.

That photo of the burning building really shows the destructive nature of fire. It seemed to put me "in the moment". Sorry for your loss.

My avatar pic was taken pre-dawn from my back porch. There was a tree branch at the right that I should have cropped. I'm pretty new at this photo stuff...still learning...a lot I hope!!!
