Almost mid-winter; only a few hours later, and the most magnificent red sunrise greeted the new day. The old saying, 'Red sky at night, shepherds delight, red sky in morning, shepherds warning' armed us mere mortals for a not so lovely day.
The wood box is full, the day has offered a few showers, but rain is warmer than some other weather conditions, and the fire remains unlit, though as darkness falls over the land the fire will warm our room.
I noticed the red sky and knowing that those red skies do not last, it was a matter of grabbing the camera, rushing outdoors in my dressing gown, and taking a photo. Wow! What a red sky!
Sadly the huge full moon will not be visible ... due to heavy cloud cover. To have been able to see that, and such a red morning sky would have been unusual. Oh well, there will be another time to see the moon in all its full moon glory close as it gets to Earth!
What a gorgeous sunrise, Shirley! Sorry you didn't manage to see the supermoon. We saw it as we were arriving at our French house late on Monday and it was amazing. Apparently the next one will be in August 2014, so not too long to wait. :-)
ReplyDeleteWe did not get to see the supermoon either.Lovely winter weather here as well.Your red sky is a lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteNo glorious sunrises/sunsets here lately but the night sky did clear for a huge moon to dominate it. Just had a quick look though as the temperature was icy!
