A tree on the side of Croft Hill silhouetted against an early evening winter sky. It was an odd evening – the red sky of the sunset appeared to be in the East. The western sky was cloudy, but the sunset should have been more obvious in that direction. I later learned that at the time that I took this photograph, an six hour lunar eclipse was coming to the end, which I hadnt noticed, since most of the eclypse took place during the daylight hhours of a sunny day.. This may have explained the apparent phenomenon of the sun sinking slowly in the East.
