Beautiful skies

I seem to join Skywatch about every other week.  Maybe I'll be able to contribute more as the weather changes and the skies where I live get more interesting...not that they are not beautiful just being blue.  I took the above picture from around the corner a few minutes ago.  Lately, we have had the chance of a lovely, occasional thunderstorm--but probably not today.
This one was taken through the windshield (you can tell from the reflection), on the freeway, as the almost-full moon was rising and the sun was setting.  The picture really does not do it justice; it was lovely.
I took this on my way home from a walk last night.  Utah does have some stellar sunsets!
Any picture can be enlarged by a click and these were all taken by my little, go everywhere with me Canon.

My gosh! That last photo is definitely incredible. I've not been able to get my act together to do my Sky Watch. Maybe after I return from my trip....

How fun to see your Utah skies … so different from the ones I see here at the beach in Southern California … reminiscent of skies I saw on my 2 week trip to Taos, New Mexico and back the summer of 2007. My Sky Watch is at Sacred Ruminations this morning.
Hugs and blessings,
