Love this idea and I’m looking forward to other views of the world soon. The sunset last night offered more in the way of clouds, though we do have the start of something moving in this morning. Best new year wishes from the foothills of the Organ Mountains of New Mexico. Laurie
I found this link for Bergh’s Silence:

I hope it works for you too, Hygge.
Ok, got it now. I did see that photo in that TWAN collection and all of those were very beautiful.
And that was a lightening storm there on Saturn, but I digress, not earthly, ok.
Thanks for the clarification, Laurence. And Hygge, it looks like the BBC will not let me watch that video, which I’ve encountered in the past when trying to catch their programming but as they say, it’s a rights issue. Others may enjoy it, I hope.
I just wanted to share that we have a unique geological spot here in my region, the vast White Sands gypsum fields, and it’s an area in which people can easily become disoriented when hiking among all the white hills, and that coupled with our desert heat can be very dangerous. But with great danger sometimes comes great beauty, as it does there. I just went to the park this evening and watched the moon rise above the dunes, it looked like a ripe peach, and they had a casual concert ongoing too. I snuck a link in there – you’ll note. If you ever find yourself in the southwest US, White Sands is not to be missed.
I had seen the Astronomy Picture of the day post today too and it’s spectacular. The link above didn’t work for me so here’s the one I used:

As this site changes daily, you might need to further search for Sept. 3rd, or Joey Mole or Tampa Bay Water Spout.
Yes, Hans, that’s the dreamy quality of Parrish but I do like your more subtle colors. Gray is so soothing, and with those warmer highlights – it’s lovely.
May I ask, as I live in a monsoon area too, in the late summer, in the southwest US and storms are daily producing amazing sky scenes – should I submit photos to the gallery regularly, or post them here? Where is most appropriate, so I’m not overdoing things for the site?
Glad to pique your memory of Parrish. His commercial work is rather bizarre too.
