Sky Watch Friday

Yesterday, 5:00pm, looking east.

I glanced up from my desk and saw the clouds start to form behind the cathedral. Grabbed the camera and was taking shots in that direction when one of the Executive Directors wandered by and said why don't you go around to my office and on to the balcony. I did and this is what I saw.

For more Sky Watch from around the world, drop in to the home of Sky Watch Friday.

It was quite astounding, wasn't it? I walked home through it with a lightness of foot!

Was hoping you might cover it ...

I'm glad somebody was able to photograph that yesterday. It really was spectacular and the colours in the sky were brilliant in every direction and kept changing dramatically until darkness. I was on my way home on the train, mesmerised by the view (and I was also spewing that I didn't have my camera with me).

It was spectacular. I didn't have the SLR with me but the baby p&s that lives in my handbag did a pretty good job.
