I love sunsets and the colours never fail to impress me. This time it was a very fiery sky with shades of red and orange splattered across the evening sky! Do you think the sky is on fire?

Looks like a mix of Red Sand storm plus some fire. Yet this looks quite unique and out of the world ! Great picture.

It's a beautiful picture. It means there is a lot of dust in the atmosphere reflecting red and orange from the sun.

I thought it was the other way - less dust in the horizon that causes these to come through

@pitstop No, the pretty colors are from dust or ash in the atmosphere. You get a clear night without the dust.

Sometimes Once I thought the sky was on fire I was wrong It was a wildfire burning just as dark came down It burned a long time
