The sky is different too. In a Baltimore summer, the humidity is very high and the temperature often exceeds 100 degrees. That makes the sky a cloudless, hazy white that is hard to look at. A summer sky in Baltimore gets so bright that it is actually painful to my eyes.
But an autumn sky is different. It's dimmer and yet seems to have more height. The colors of blue and pink and orange are vibrant at sunset. It is wonderful to behold.

early fall is indeed a lovely time of year.
ReplyDeleteYup. On a lighter note, it's also the time of year when Doug and I visit all the haunted house exhibits in south central Pennsylvania. "Haunted Mill" and "Jason's Woods" are perennial favorites.
ReplyDeleteThe other day just before dinner the light in our house turned golden. It was the reflection of the setting sun on a gathering of clouds. The light only lasted a minute, but it reminded me of how evening is coming earlier every day.
ReplyDeleteTiof: It does seem like the best sunsets happen between Mabon and Samhain. :)
ReplyDeleteI must agree upon that Autumn Sky
ReplyDeleteis beautiful in its colours

You mentioned.
Enjoy this Autumn weekend,
Anna: I imagine that in Sweden the daylight gets hard to come by in the winter. Does the sun disappear entirely, or do the days just get really short?
