Our condo is a corner unit. I love to gaze out over the lake because it is the nearest I can get to a 'natural' scene, my husband loves to look at the city. Last night we both had a treat.
As the sun started to sink, the sky over the lake turned a wonderful colour, mixing soft pinks and lilacs and the water pumping station was lit up by the sun.
A little while later the moon rose over the city and the buildings started to glow in the evening light.
After the sun had set there was still a wonderful indigo colour to the sky and the moon sailed majestically above.

Excellent Skywatch! Truly a skyline that is pretty in pink!
Bravo!
Cheers, Klaus
The shot with the moon is my favorite. I like the way the light is touching the taller buildings.
My Sky Watch Friday blog is at my Canon Pixels blog. If you have time I would appreciate your having a look at the sky peeking through the oak tree leaves.
Wondeful series of photos. I love how the sky changes color. I read your sidebar. I love Ornithology, herpatology and Earl grey tea too! What a wonderful view to have while you sip a cup of tea!
Beautiful colors. I especially love the city shots.
Gorgeous hint of pink and a wonderful cityscape
Oh my goodness... these are very special indeed... the skyline is incredible... my skyline is mountains so to see the buildings is really neat!! The moon shot is beautiful!!!!
