Who needs fireworks?
It's not that I dislike fireworks. Just that most photographs of fireworks always look a little too similar to me. When making plans for last weekend, I briefly toyed with the idea of going to a big display, or perhaps finding a vantage point that looked out across London. I decided against, and headed out of town instead.
My reward was a pair of stunning sunsets, much more pleasing than any man-made spectacle. And probably better for the environment too; though it might be that all the smoke being blasted into the sky added to the richness of the colours.
Saturday at Capel Fleet and Sunday on Brighton beach

I don't know whether Saturday's sunset was isolated to that particular corner of Kent. But I've seen several pictures that show a lot of south-east England enjoyed Sunday's spectacle.

Two lovely photos - the first one is really serene. Second could do with a bit of straightening? Really like both.

These two photos are stunning in terms of colours. Like in the first comment, #2 could have been better if you correct on the tilted horizon.
I LOVE that Brighton image... it looks almost too perfect to be true...
