Late sunlight

It has rained heavily for a lot of the day, which is a good thing but also rather miserable, with very low light and nothing to tempt me outside. I will have to return to the raindrop photography which characterised my first weeks of Blip, but today was not the day. I was casting my eyes around for something interesting to pose under a desk lamp when the sky brightened. The rain had stopped and the last of the sunlight, already too low to illuminate the hills, turned the clouds pink for a few brief minutes before sunset. It was fascinating to see the shapes and layers of cloud above the Downs, moving at very different speeds - the small, wispy dark grey clouds were closest to me, and moving much faster than the huge, billowing pink and gold ones.
