Click the pictures for a better viewLast evening I went for a walk around Newtown and after a while I noticed some amazing, beautiful orange clouds.
I could barely see the setting sun due to obstructions like power lines, trees, houses and other buildings, but the aura from the sunset was so fantastic that people were coming out of their homes and watching.
Thankfully I had my camera and took lots of pictures, but they really don't do justice to the incredible site.
Today I'm posting the strangest looking cloud formation that I can remember seeing.
I saw this just when it looked like the show was about over.
You may disagree, but to me it looks just like an orange alien-type head that's looking to the right. It has large eyes and a very pronounced chin , even a nose and lips.

That's a special kind of light - intense - wonderful nature!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting :)
How beautiful, as if the clouds themselves were on fire.
ReplyDeleteI noticed the last photo before I read what you had written about it and I wondered how many else were seeing a head in it. =) Beautiful colours and nice snaps.
ReplyDeleteLove the title! The first photo really looks like an ET!
ReplyDeleteWhat marvelous shots, James! Extraordinary colors! And, yep, it looks like an alien to me! Watch your step, he may be watching you!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
I see it! Those are fantastic pictures.

ReplyDeleteIt was awesome! I love a good sunset! The texture on the cloud base was perfect for absorbing all those fantastic colors.
ReplyDeleteWonderful captures of the sunset/alien.
ReplyDeleteI do believe that there is some thing out there, other than us.
Have a great weekend.

Cool colours even if the sky shots do look a bit eerie. ;-) Nice captures.

ReplyDeleteregarding not seeing the sculpture at fashion island. it's one of those things. it's changed for the better and this last visit, i realized just how much i missed HOME and my haunts. we also went to Captain Jack's at Sunset Beach for lobster and filet mignon...which was to die for. have you ever eaten there?

Oh yes, the face is very clear. The sky scenes are just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI was just going to say that I love these spots of contrasting colors in skies. Then you pointed out the alien head and now that's all I see! :P
ReplyDeleteMarvelous captures! Thanks for sharing your experience of these magnificent skies with us so beautifully. My Sky Watch is at Sacred Ruminations this week ... though I may get around to sharing skies on my other blogs later ... just because.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
I spotted the image even before I began reading your post James. What an amazing capture. Good luck trying to repeat that. Clouds are like the Artwork of Angels.
ReplyDeleteI spotted the alien alike image straight away. It is very obvious indeed. Awesome shot!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I can add anything to what has already been said...other than I agree...these are super nice and the colors are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWonderful light and color!
ReplyDeleteI noticed a sky much like that on Wednesday evening, but I was driving and had no clear shot. It is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat does indeed look like a giant alien face !!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours and great capture !!
Happy SWF and have a great weekend. :-)
Yep, I see the face with just one look, its amazing!
