Burning in the sky by Linkin Park copyhttps://youtu.be/orMVaBS9knk

As usual this time of the year we are having some awful fires. For that reason the setting sun looks like a blood moon :-(

[Carole G]

Wow, looks very eerie. Hope you're not affected by the fires too much.

[Taffy]

The sky is amazing, but worrisome that it is due to fire.

[Fr1da]

Incredible image !

[Valerie Chesney]

Beautiful, but, frightening....we have had some dreadful bush fires here too

[Jacqueline]

Looks frightening, hope that they are not to close to you

[Casablanca]

Sorry to hear about the fires. Hope they settle down speedily in your area but oh what a beautiful image they create

[Dione Giorgio]

Sorry to hear about the fires but a great photo opportunity. Hope the firemen keep the fires under control.

[Lou Ann]

Awww, the smoke in the air creates these incredible sunsets I’m sure. Like volcanic ash does when a volcano erupts. This is an amazing scene.

[bruni]

I enjoy your picture of the red "sun" not realizing it arises from bush fires.

[Junan Heath]

Beautiful image! Fav

[~*~ Jo ~*~]

Shame that this is created by fires - hope they are speedily dealt with

[Peter Day]

I always look on your page to see some nice sunny pictures of beaches and things, but today you have let me down

[Henri Russell]

Such an awesome sky. Too bad it is the result of the fires.

[Faye Turner]

Beautiful capture!

[Margaret Brown]

Lovely colours but very sad that fires are the result

[Karly]

So sorry for the fires - understand how that is because we have a fire season every year too. On the plus side - it does make for a striking photo!

[Leslie]

That’s sad to hear but I wonderful capture.

[Josie Gilbert]

As everyone else has said, it's a pity about the fires, but still the photo is impressive. I hope you are ok.

[tony gig]

Great shot... Fav

[Wylie]

wow, amazing colour.

[Michelle]

Such a shame about the fires but an amazing capture

[Islandgirl]

Lovely colours!

[Lois]

Beautiful

[Jane Pittenger]

Amazing color but I feel for you with the smoke and fires

[Rick]

Wow, really changes things. Cool capture.

It is very much appreciated. fortunately they are not too close to us, but the smoke and ash is rather horrific. On the downside, Signal Hill and Lions Head has also started burning in Cape Town, which is threatening homes up there. It is only 30 Kilometers (about 180 miles) away from us :-(

[Shari]

Wow, incredible.

[sarah]

So sorry to hear about these fires

[Pyrrhula]

A beautiful scene and colors. So sorry for the fires. Hope nobody gets hurt or damage is done to the properties.

[CC Folk]

Fav...I remember this is how it was in California too...gorgeous colors in the sky and around the sun...at such a price though. :(

[Diana]

@sstcowan @samae @pyrrhula @gardenfolk Thanks for the kind comments, the price is certainly too high :-(
