I was working in the kitchen when the color outside changed to a strange orangish hue. It had been drizzling the whole evening. Living in Sydney has taught me that colors like this usually mark the arrival of a rainbow. So I stared hard at the sky, searching for sign, but couldn’t find any. Maybe I was wrong.
I walked into the living room, which faces out frontyard and lifted the curtain slightly to see if the sky looked any different.
And this was the view that met my eyes.
No filters I promise.
The sky was slightly pink and purple initially. And then slowly, I saw it turn into a full blown pink cotton candy. What was strange was the stark difference of this potion of the sky with the surrounding color, which was a perfect blue.
Say aye if you too have seen pink magical skies. And do share a link if you have written about it. 😊
Linking to wordless Wednesday, image-in-ing
Those are wonderful pictures of the sky. They are very pleasant to the eyes. Aren’t you used to such lovely patterns in the sky? Rainbows are always my favorite. I love to watch them but they are rare.
I am trying to recollect memories of the sky with a rainbow. Those moments are less. Also I read somewhere that the more the sky is beautiful/colorful, the more it is polluted. I really don’t know if I must Believe it or not. To me, the sky is beautiful always.
Fantastic, just what I wanted to shoot today since we have a bit of sun.
Gorgeous colors and great captures!
I love the rainbow in the beautiful pink sky. So gorgeous!
How amazing! That is a very good catch to get such good pictures.
Beautiful lavender skies! Gorgeous!
Oh, it looks like cotton candy alright! Wow! Thanks for sharing 🙂 and No, I haven’t seen a similar sight before!
You sure captured some beauty with your lens today! Thanks so much for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2018/01/homemade-bagels.html
I am always amazed by what Nature offers and your pictures do such incredible justice to them too. I have seen a pink sky very often and shared it too on Insta, I think. Such a gorgeous sight.
Gorgeous skywatch capture! I love that you had a full rainbow overhead!! Often times, we see beautiful pinks clouds in the evening sky just outside our living room window. The warmer months the view is the best. I can’t snap photos easily from there with other things obstructing the view but it’s sure nice to see. Happy WW!
Curious as a Cathy
Beautiful captures quick thinking to get a shot of it love the description Cotton candy sky 🙂
I have seen fluffs of white cluouds outside, floating away in bliss. These sights do bring in joy to the heart. You sure do have a great view!!!
Oh wow! How gorgeous is that! Unfortunately I don’t have such a view from my kitchen window but if I go to the roof, I am often caught off guard with some fantastic views, some even on my evening walks. And yes, I love pink skies.
We often have magnificent skies here in S.Africa but I haven’t seen one with these beautiful shades of deep pink and blue. Lovely! Share Your World
We often get these skies here but the rainbow is just breathtakingly beautiful and so delightful. Thanks for sharing.
I have seen “cotton candy” skies like this before and they always leave me in awe. I was so excited to see your post and realize that others are also thrilled by this sight. So lovely.
