Nightfall - Thursday Europe

in #photography6 years ago

24.06.2017

"It is said that the traditions of Jaanipäev started with the fall of the Kaali meteorite around 4,000 years ago, lighting of bonfires to re-enact the falling of the meteorite when it lit the night said to seem light the sun rose again in the night."

This image was taken in South-Estonia right at midnight after a long search for a bonfire shot that I eventually never found, but luck befalls those who search and so I was rewarded this sight on my way back home.
With the intense burning red sky that evening it almost seemed like another meteorite hit the Earth. A picture well worth the effort.

I submitted this image to @czechglobalhosts contest!

Beautiful! The lighter band above the trees almost makes the whole scene look like a waterfall if you look at it really quickly. Amazing :)

The colours of the sky are simply stunning 😍
