The clouds, thick and lush, shifting character and colour while the sky is painted in a mesmerizing palette of blue – like the deepest of oceans that converge into light water crystals which cover the hidden beaches of sand.
As the sun sets a jet of orange begins to fill the clouds and sky like a fire dancing around trees. However, it is a peaceful and harmonious fire which softens into the colour of a peach, still holding its suspense as glowing embers do. The horizon transitions into a soft pink, and as if in a dream a hint of purple leads the way into a star specked night.
