Last night's sunset

Isle of Harris and Waternish Headland from Lochbay, Isle of Skye - 11 May - - - - - - North Uist from Lochbay, Isle of Skye - 11 May

The sun was still setting at past 10pm here last night and I was working speedily to catch the colours on paper. In the last few weeks the sun has moved swiftly across so it's setting further and further north (now towards Berneray and South Harris rather than North Uist - for those who like to know a geographical location). That means the colour is intensifying nearer Harris, as in the left-hand picture -that's my first picture of Harris this summer. Loving the corresponding blues that the sea develops in response to the intense reds. Really lovely to witness and attempt to capture.
