Yesterday evening we experienced the most beautiful sunset one could imagine. The sky was on fire! Nearby trees in our own and our neighbour’s gardens prevent us from following the setting sun as it dips over the horizon, but last night we were treated to a most spectacular light show.

It was just after eight o’clock. “Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight” – so a good day should follow.

I’ve photographed a number of spectacular sunrises and sunsets over the years, and I’ve picked out a few to share (below) in today’s blog.
