  1. So glad you saw the one 8 minutes before the other. I can't believe how devoid of color the second photo is.

  5. The grey skies remind me of Ohio where I was born. It always seems overcast and grey in Ohio. But I sure do love that sunset photo.

  10. I love when the pinks shade the sky, that's a beautiful capture! You should check out the haunting sky I captured on my post titled...MAGIC TO ???. It confirms your statement, for sure!

  14. What a difference a few minutes can make! Beautiful photo.

    (I'm a fellow Buckeye, but haven't seen a sunrise or sunset like this for days. I'm missing the beautiful colors.)

  16. Louise- Yes, it really was so gray. To be honest, I was quite dissapointed when I came out earlier to see such a gray sky.

    THanks Gaelyn. Well said.

    Bobbie- It was spectacular.

    Thanks Jenn-

    Jack- Yes, Ohio can be gray. Here in Columbus it isn't as gray as NE Ohio where I was born.

    Marley- Thank you.

    Thanks Babooshka.

    Guy- For a second I thought your blog was about your wife! Then I realized live you live in a town called Regina.

    Thanks Allison.

    Mary, thank you.

    Spooky- Yes, I'll try to make it and check out your post. Thank you.

    Gina- Thank you.

    Bradley- Thanks, yes, you hit the nail on the head. A fleeting moment of beauty then back to gray.

    Baruch- Fortunately I took this picture from my front porch so I didn't have far to go to get a great image.

    Arthur Clan- This was Wednesday morning. We've been having some great sunsets recently! My commute home is west at the time is setting here in Columbus. I wish I could take shots from my car!

    Thanks Tom.

    Kathleen- THank you!

    Happy Sky Watch

    I often leap up to catch a picture, only to find it has suddenly gone.

  22. I find it funny that people don't take 15 minutes (TOPS) out of their busy lives to enjoy a sunrise or sunset every day. I can't imagine just letting them all go by...
