SkyWatch Friday - Pink or red?

Great colours and formations this week.
This first picture taken with a regular "au naturel" 
setting on the camera.

Second picture using the "sunset" setting 
which certainly adds to the depth of colour.

I like both, but the first looks more authentic to me.  If someone had painted that second one, you'd be tempted to say the paintbrush had run away from them!

Have a wonderful SkyWatch Friday.

    I like them all! Thanks for sharing the incredible sunsets. It's amazing what a setting change on a camera can do.

    Both are beautiful. It certainly makes a difference, though.

    Glorious way to end the day! I've enjoyed using the different settings on my camera, too. And the sunset settings always makes such a wonderful difference! Terrific captures for the day! Hope you have a great weekend with lots of beautiful skies!

    I think they are both very fetching (to use an old-fashioned word).

    SKY SONG

    Glowing moon and shining stars,
    Venus, Jupiter and Mars,
    Planets swirling round the sun;
    Darkness falls when day is done.

    In the vast and endless sky
    Eagle, wren and falcon fly;
    Over hill and dale they roam,
    Calling cloud and thunder home.

    Beautiful comparison. I love how modern camera's do tricks with objects. It's really cool to play with.
