The northeast suffered a tremendous wind storm over the last 36 hours. Trees fell, power went out and sadly, five people died. In my neighborhood tiles were ripped off our roofs and our garbage cans were hurled all over the place. But then, last evening, as the wind was calming down a little, I looked up at the northern sky. These colors appeared within about 30 seconds of each other. The wind was still capricious and it stole my cap, lifting it swiftly off my head and spinning it, like a frisbee, into the air. I ran to get it back, but not before I took these photographs to share. I used my phone and there are no filters, just the colors as they appeared. They were taken about 30 seconds apart and during that time the colors changed dramatically. If I had painted that, people might tell me that the sky is blue or gray, not violet pink or peachy apricot. I would have to show them these photos so they would understand.
