Oxbow Sunset
This week's SKYWATCH FRIDAY / SCENIC SUNDAY post takes me back to Grand Teton National Park and the oft visited Oxbow Bend observation point. This view looks toward the massive Mt. Moran across the Snake River. On this night late in June, I was luck enough to capture the brilliance of sunset on the fleeting clouds. The richness of the color was due in part to the presence of smoke in the atmosphere from California wildfires that had been burning the few days prior.

Really pretty!
Beautiful!
After school one day when my son was in high school there was a lovely sunset I admired. He said pollution made the prettiest sunsets.
I think of that quite often but try not to let it get in my way of enjoying what I'm looking at. :)

STORYTELLER
The sky, whether deep blue or grey,
Has stories to tell every day;
So if the day’s clear,
Be sure to draw near—
The heavens know just what to say!
