Smoke Eclipse
This is a snapshot of the skies towards the Blue Mountains, which were ablaze with raging bush-fires last week – and there is more of the same on the horizon for Australia. Today, a week later, Sydney is blanketed in smoke once again, and Summer is not yet upon us 😯

Didn’t get time to do my usual 5 favourites, but love these two entries to the Horizon WPC

Wow, the asthmatics must be having a horrible time 😦 Terrific photo but scary too – though not as scary as the PM in his fire fighting outfit making absolutely no difference to anything #doh
For sure, Gabe, and my hub, who had a nasty chest infection at the same time. PM = #twit
Love the snap and that Wind Against the Current one! Thanks
WAC’s shot is beautiful and doesn’t involve bush fires 🙂
Gorgeous!
Nature does its thing, Gilly.
Awesome shot, BB.
Thanks, Nancy.
It makes a beautiful spectacle out of an ugly scene, doesn’t it?
It does, Col.
Lovely photo; sorry about the fires.
Thanks, Tilly
Wildfires are terrible…but the aftermath sure makes for beautiful photography…
They are, and do, Sued – thanks
Incredible colours,BB. I recall when the Icelandic volcano erupted our skies held similar hues. Unrest and mayhem on the earth’s surface seem to create these sky-locked masterpieces.
Yes, Kate – art from devastation. The Icelandic volcano was an incredible spectacle, but what chaos it caused!
Beautiful photo, but those fires are so terrible. 😦
Thanks, AD. The fires have been really bad this year.
I think uncontrolled fires are really scary! Firefighters all need medals for doing what they do.
They do, Adee – horrible, dangerous job.
Schönes Foto Lieber Gruß und einen schönen Sonntag liebe Grüße Gislinde
Thanks, Gislinde 🙂
skyes have magical colours, anywhere, anytime , great photo. 🙂
Thanks, Benedicte.
Devastating, Bluebee. And summer not yet upon you.
I think the firefighters are going to have a busy one, Monica.
I hope you get rain but in moderation. We had early fires and then devastating flooding nearby. Hard to fathom.
We are having lovely rain today, Monica 🙂
Oh, thank goodness!
So glad the fires have eased BB, apparently there are two remote fires near us that are still being fought/contained so I hope that goes well …
Smokey here again today, but rain is predicted for the weekend, so here’s hoping. Hope you get some too in the right spots.
we had smoke all day too, but it is raining now, very welcome!
