I live in a part of England that has several RAF and USAF air bases nearby and as a consequence planes are always to-ing and fro-ing overhead, so it's still really weird not hearing them or seeing their contrails across the sky... and as much as I find the aircraft noise strangely comforting and familiar to the point where I don't really notice it, I am enjoying the peace and quiet!
I am also lucky enough to live in a region that is well known for its open skies and spectacular sunsets, and as Mr Sunshine had his hat on all weekend we were once again treated to an amazing sunset on Saturday evening.
So, as breathtaking sunsets are common in my neck of the woods, I can't say for definite that the Volcano lent a helping hand... but there was a suspicious coating of dust on everyone's cars, so of course I am going to go with that idea :)
I snapped this at around 8:40pm from my back garden

What a gorgeous picture!!! You could send that in to be on the weather (do you get that like we do on Look North? You send in your pics at the weatherman puts them up before he starts!) xxxx
That picture is so clear and beautiful!
But I really do hope everything returns to normal again soon :-)

I love sunsets, I'm hoping this cloud is going to lift for my trip to Barcelona! Even of it does, i'm a bit scared to fly now ;0(

@ *R* - Thank you! And yes we do have that on Look East, I'd never thought of that hehe! Will remember that in future :) xx
@ Amanda - Thank you, I was really pleased with it! Thankfully all back to normal now, the volcano had better behave from now on! xx
@ .... x hel x .... - Me too, I'm a bit of a geek sunset photographer! You'll be fine for Barcelona, have a nice glass (or two) of wine beforehand and you'll be there before you know it :) xx
