The Sky Wasn't Red, This Morning

 ... but the clouds sure were.


This one's quite large: nearly 7,000 pixels wide. I left it alone so you can get a better feel for the east horizon in Anchorage, where it was taken about 0830 this morning. 

To see full-size, click on the image above. Then right-click on the new, larger image, and select "open in new tab". That one will be full size.

I hope you enjoy.

About the New Header Picture

Since nearly all y'all seem to be asking ...

The new pic was taken Saturday in the late morning, as my wife and I returned home from a shopping excursion to Anchorage.

Part of our small town is just visible amongst the trees on the mountainsides, and our home is nestled about halfway up one of those hillsides.

Now you know.

Me at the range after getting a new pistol for Christmas, some years ago.
Temp was around -5°, if memory serves.

Heading north on the Glen Highway, somewhere between Anchorage and Eagle River, AK.
