Orange Nightfall

Feeling much better, though still coughing a bit. Finished work at lunchtime so got myself out for a late afternoon run.  

Perfect day - still, cold and dry. As i finished and was warming down there was the most perfect sunset. Here and there the low red sun burst through the broken clouds, lighting up the sky a fiery orange-pink. But what was particularly spectacular was the way the sunlight caught the billowing steam from the distant power stations rising straight up in the still cool air; gleaming red against the darkening cloud behind.  

And then it was gone...

Have a perfect chrimbo everybody.
