Liar, liar, sky on fire!

I was typing an email and then looked out the window and saw the amazing red colors churning across the sky. I felt it was necessary to grab my camera and run outside and take some pictures. And I did.
I tried a couple with my telephoto zoom lens, but I wanted a wider view. Then I put on the wide angle and I got too much of the apartment parking lot (which to be fair, had just been recoated earlier that day, which made me condier the wisdom of not putting on shoes, mostly that it confined me to the sidewalk). Anyway, I grabbed my 55mm prime lens and took some shots with it. I hope it gives some sense of how widely dispersed the sunset colors were and how cool it looked to me. DSC_6396: This was looking south at the half-moon. It was fuzzy because of the thin clouds around. There's a hint of pink in the background visible. DSC_6397: Looking west with the tree silhouettes. It really looked that cool (or fiery)! DSC_6398: More sunset tree silhouettes. DSC_6399: The lone tree. DSC_6400: Two half-trees at sunset. DSC_6402: A slightly longer shot. DSC_6403: Another fuzzy half-moon shot with the 55mm lens. DSC_6413: A larger sunset view of the less scenic parking lot, complete with cones. DSC_6415: Thin tree branches at sunset. It's art, damn it! sunset_Panorama1: A composite images from 8 pictures of trees by my apartment at sunset.
