editor’s note: the shots i took looking due east – around 7:15pm – with all of the bands (i will note the pic below) – do not come close to the scene i saw with my eyes. the depth of the purple that was lower in the horizon was amazing. i have yet to see that deep of a purple show up. and it was due east too! i was actually having a conversation with a friend who had just pulled up in his car (i was on my bike) and had to interrupt him when i saw the skies and excused myself as i took pictures. the time of the photos start at around 5pm when we went from blue skies to a lot of wind bringing in a huge wall of some amazing clouds, which you will see below. i had a feeling we were going to have an amazing sky scene at sunset. the glow ended up lasting for a good hour – and as has been the case for some time now – often starts in the east before the west lights up.
aside from some amazing sky scenes, WOW did i feel floaty today! and tired too. i zonked out within minutes for awhile around 9pm.

(this is one of the photos i took – due east at around 7:15pm – that had the deep deep purple low in the horizon. the bands were brilliant all the way up.)
(this glow just kinda snuck up on me – taken on my ride)
