out and about - 2020

 

13 January 2020 .............. An unexpected sunset

 

 

Storm Brendan brought some wild weather all day, with wind, rain, and just to add to it, a very high high tide - so lots of flooding, especially along many of the low lying coastal roads.

It was very unexpected when in the late afternoon suddenly there was a change in the weather and the cloud rolled back and left clear sky - just as the sun was setting.

So we got quite an intense sunset, with the trailing edge of the cloud being lit up by the setting sun - this was in its early stages -

 the start of the sunset

The colouring lasted for quite a while, giving me enough time to shoot down the road to the beach for a better view - and a huge area of the sky lit up in a bright orange - this is only part of it, the camera lens was as wide as it would go, but could only capture part of it -

 the ongoing the sunset

A few minutes later, and the orange is starting to break up -

 the beginning of the end of the sunset
