1238. Sunset

16 Replies

What an unbelievably beautiful sunset! Spectacular! It changes from blue to green to red to pink to white. It’s like watching coloured theatre lights change on the pleats of a hanging curtain. Blue to green to red to pink to white and back to blue! Part of its beauty must surely be that it passes. Things disappear so quickly. Just a fleeting glimpse into the expanse of the sky and then… darkness.

But this sunset seems to linger. Could it mean a storm at sea? A fine day tomorrow? An portent of better things to come?

None of these. It’s near midday, and I’m watching the nuclear fallout drift this way.

      !! Yesterday was a very clear day and I saw the “sister volcano” – Mount Ruapehu – way way in the distance. I didn’t realize you could see both Mt Taranaki (my mountain) and Mt Ruapehu from here. Anyway, Mt Ruapehu is the one that keeps erupting! It’s probably too far away to be dangerous,
