Red Blazer Sunset

Letting the dog out on Wednesday evening, June 3, 2015 brought notice to an unusual sky glow seen behind trees at Bowman Woods Park in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. A closer inspection and armed with the camera in a more open area of the park eventually captured the two images seen above. Both images were photographed at 8:52 pm CDT. The top image is a two-photo stitch (Adobe Bridge photo merge process). Official sunset was at 8:37 pm. Nikon D5000 DSLR camera.
