Sunset in the east

We happened to look outside at just the right time to see the entire world bathed in a warm, yellowish glow. I grabbed the camera and went out onto the deck.

As I stared up at the clouds, I noticed a bright silver speck moving silently and quickly across the sky. Something about it seemed unreal.

The jet is barely visible slightly below and to the left of center here. I zoomed in a little to make it more visible.

The passengers in that silver cylinder didn’t realize what kind of show they were putting on.

The show lasted a few minutes and then it was gone.

  1. Robin — I wonder, too. It might have been magnificent, and it might have looked pretty ordinary from above. I’m not sure how much of the pink would be visible from above the cloud. On the other hand, a mix of pink undersides and white tops might have looked nice.
