Skywatch Friday....

It seems strange that I took these 2 photos on the same evening!....Sunset fire in the west.....

.....and swallows swooping with the half moon high overhead in the south a bit earlier!

Thanks to Tom and the others for hosting Sky Watch. Check out the new site and join the fun by clicking on the Skywatch logo at the right.

Beautiful skies, Mary. The colors in the first one are breathtaking!

That first picture is so similar to the skies around here. I love the different sunsets, and they can change by the second.
Beautiful shots!

Sunset Fire is a great title for this photo for it is alive with burning colours. Lovely!
