yeah there's that moment where the sky is blue at the top and yellow at the bottom, so it must be green where they mix, .... but that's impossible, you can't have green sky - it's just a colour that we can't describe or maybe can't see properly or something

I didn’t sit down and cry about the beauty of the moment like HmmGuv did at the seaside recently. Part of the glow may even have been pollution, but that peach/pink realm into lilac into pale blue. Dual light sources off moon rise and setting sun

The North Sea does it at sunset with purple greys that hint at darker sea green reflections, into a silvery pearl halo on a cloudy night. This was the opposite for colour. Sublime eastern views. Might be time to go to Skeggy

pollution can be very beautiful

I feel like this latest moon had lasted for ages and was a super moon or something. Waning a bit tonight, I'm exhausted.

spectacular sliver of new moon appeared over the horizon glimpsed for a few instants cool and calm before retreating among some scudding clouds lit gently by the last rays of today's springtime sunshine, blossoms out and fragrant mashallah ramadan karim

I was just thinking how that colour (or is the word I want here "shade" technically?) was so beautiful, it feels universally undeniable to the extent that anyone seeing it would be compelled to pause for a second and just stare it and feel good. Not even in the same way as decorative art or anything of the kind although on the surface it does feel similar, but I think I mean something more fundamental, to me it seems to be for colours what the golden ratio is for, er, ratios in that it it's just unequivocally pleasing to the eye (although there are no doubt many other colours or shades of which that is equally true whereas the ratio is supposedly unique so the analogy breaks down almost immediately)... and then you described it as like a red leicester. I feel you demeaned it a little.
Where was it taken anyway @sufi ? On seeing it one wants to be there... not in the pic though that wouldn't be enough to scratch the itch, it's really the colour itself that entices and inside which one wants to be.
