This morning as I was thinking about what I could dig out of my archives for SkyWatch (because our skies, though beautiful, are often the same every day during this season), I noticed a pink glow. I looked out the window and EVERYTHING was pink. I knew there must be a fantastic sky, so I grabbed the camera and ran out. There was no time to relocate-thus the neighborhood is in the photo-but the sky was a bowl of beauty. The entire thing was ablaze in varying shades of pink. A glorious morning.
For my regular readers, thanks to those who have expressed concern over Chicklet. She is much better. Her eyes will probably be clear in a couple of days. Her “happiness level” is normal, and that is the most important thing for those of us who live with her.
To see LOTS more terrific sky pictures or to find out how to participate in this meme, head to the SkyWatch blog.

Louise: That is one beautiful sky, how wonderful you were able to have it today. Definitely a gift from God.
November 13, 2008 at 10:58 am
Whoa, this is a lovely color. I am glad this showed up. I don’t think I have witnessed the sky in this pinkish hue.
Glad to hear that the little one is getting better.

This is perfections,Louise! Love the shade of pink:) Mines up too!~
November 13, 2008 at 12:07 pm
I can’t tell you the number of times, me looking out the window has caused me to run out the door with my camera in hand. Isn’t it amazing when you get to experience these kinds of things?! I love the show the sky offers. Love the pink sky!
November 13, 2008 at 12:22 pm
Lovely sky.. could be a painting. I’m glad to hear that your daughter’s lovely eyes are on the mend.
November 13, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Oops, I hit “Submit” too soon. I was also going to say that pink in a sky is gorgeous.. in your kidlet’s eyes.. not so much. 😉
November 13, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Ooh – I hope your “red in the morning, shepherd’s warning” didn’t cause terrible weather for you!! It sure is gorgeous though. I love when there’s an “a-ha” sky to photograph.
November 13, 2008 at 12:28 pm
How incredibly beautiful, almost not real. You are right to take the surroundings as well, afterall they belong there.
November 13, 2008 at 12:33 pm
The sky is amazing! AH, and the neighbourhood looks so Southwestern. I LIKE it. 😉 Happy Sky Watch!
November 13, 2008 at 12:36 pm
It certainly was a glorious morn! Stunning photo, Louise. I’m so glad to know that Chicklet is doing better!
November 13, 2008 at 12:38 pm
That sky is incredible. Glad to hear Chiclet is feeling better!
November 13, 2008 at 1:09 pm
Hi Louise, I’ve got an award for you! You deserve it and I hope that we can enjoy seeing your posts for a long time.
November 13, 2008 at 1:19 pm
It is a good thing you looked out because the sky was beautiful. Ours was all grey with rain today. I really like the photo from yesterday also.
November 13, 2008 at 1:31 pm
Gorgeous pink sky. Glad to hear chicklet is doing better.
November 13, 2008 at 1:38 pm
Nothing’s more beautiful than a pink sunrise and some peace and quiet. Very well done. Love it.
November 13, 2008 at 1:45 pm
It is just beautiful!!
Bravo on the shot
November 13, 2008 at 1:58 pm
That’s what I call literally seeing the world through rose colored glasses. Gorgeous catch.
November 13, 2008 at 2:17 pm
It is a glorious colured sky a real purple haze.
November 13, 2008 at 2:24 pm
Hi Louise, I’m so glad you rushed outside to take the shot and the houses in the foreground are okay as they give some perspective. Absolutely awesome colours!
November 13, 2008 at 2:27 pm
Pink is my favorite color….. 😉
A lovely sunrise, Louise
November 13, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Its a wonderful picture Louise.
That colour makes me feel very happy.
You needed the buildings to show as a matt contrast to the lovely sky.
Have a good week.
November 13, 2008 at 2:43 pm
So glad to hear your daughter feels better. And that you can share the fabulous pink sky with us.
November 13, 2008 at 3:03 pm
Oooooh, you always manage to capture such mad, beautiful skies Louise. Stunning again!
November 13, 2008 at 3:06 pm
lovely. Hope you’re feeling better dear.
November 13, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Oh I’m so jealous! To live out west and see this kind of beauty every day…I know, beauty is everywhere, but IMO nothing beats the west! This is simply gorgeous…I love it so!
November 13, 2008 at 3:18 pm
Fantastic sky! I love all those wonderful pink shades, and I’m glad you left the buildings and trees in the picture. Nicely done!
November 13, 2008 at 3:21 pm
Louise, I like seeing the neighborhood. Unless a sky has something truly amazing going on I much prefer seeing where the photograph was taken. I think it’s a beautiful photo.
November 13, 2008 at 3:22 pm
That IS beautiful! Great capture.
*hugs*
November 13, 2008 at 3:52 pm
WOW! Gorgeous picture! Fantastic!
November 13, 2008 at 3:52 pm
Oh My, nicely colored sky & nicely captured!!!
November 13, 2008 at 4:32 pm
Oh là là ! Very red Your sky !
Great shot…
November 13, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Geez Louise! It’s like bubble gum! Amazing. You must have been so excited to see the real thing. I can only hope. You are so blessed.
November 13, 2008 at 4:50 pm
Truly breathtaking! Don’t you feel blessed when you witness something like that? Happy SWF. 🙂
November 13, 2008 at 4:51 pm
Hi Louise, thank you for visitng my new blog. Your skywatches are very colorful. We have great skies here but not as colorful as your.
November 13, 2008 at 4:52 pm
thanks for sharing that. It’s amazing.
November 13, 2008 at 4:54 pm
There are times when a picture just has to be grabbed. The same thing has happened here.
November 13, 2008 at 5:00 pm
I love pink! Makes everything look warm and happy. Our sky last night was much like this, but striped with blue. Think I’ll post that one next week! Glad to here your daughter is in good spirits. 🙂
November 13, 2008 at 5:01 pm
What a wonderful and colorful sight to begin the week-end with.
Once or twice I’ve taken such a Sky color, on pictures it appears even more unreal!
Bonne fin de semaine Louise.
November 13, 2008 at 5:22 pm
Mmmm! Like a bowl full of cherry juice.
New Mexico has such magical skies 🙂
Happy Sky Watch Friday!

Thank you for sharing such a perfect moment. I have never seen the sky like that.
Sharon
November 13, 2008 at 5:37 pm
Everything really is pink! Wow! Great photo. The buildings really add to the sense of the enormous pinkiness 🙂
November 13, 2008 at 5:59 pm
What a glorious pink sunrise, Louise. It must be very special to discover such a beautiful sky by surprise.
Happy SWF and have a good weekend.
November 13, 2008 at 6:00 pm
Pretty Pretty photo!!
Thanks for sharing it with us.
Take care
November 13, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Wowee! What a gorgeous sky! Must have been incredible in real life! Happy SWF! 🙂
November 13, 2008 at 6:29 pm
Your like me, Louise, I run for the camera when the sky gets a weird or pretty sky (whatever). Thank you.
Happy SkyWatch, I’m doing it again this week (Little Photo Place). Not nearly as pretty as your pink sky but I did find sky.
🙂
November 13, 2008 at 6:42 pm
I love it when the sky is pink! Unfortunately our skies are often the same daily this time of year too, which around here means, extremely cloudy and no sun at all, well you know it’s up there somewhere, only because the sky is white but you never can determine exactly where it is, until it’s gone.
November 13, 2008 at 7:19 pm
a postively perfect sky…pink is wonderful!
November 13, 2008 at 7:27 pm
lovely,fantastic,awesome,beautiful pink clouds!!!

November 13, 2008 at 7:39 pm
Great photo & amazing colors
Happy SWF!
November 13, 2008 at 10:29 pm
always so beautiful
November 13, 2008 at 10:36 pm
Red sky in morning, sailor take warning….did it rain on you this evening? 😉
What a gorgeous sky, and gorgeous capture of it.
So glad Chicklet is better!
November 13, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Louise, this is a stunning view. Really very nice!
But now I must ask you the usual question: did you retouch a bit the photograph??? If the answer is not, the atmosphere in your zone looks fabulously unusual! 🙂
November 13, 2008 at 11:24 pm
Hello Louise I love the colour pink and your sky is fabulous. Hope it ended up been a great day. Happy SWF.
November 13, 2008 at 11:31 pm
“Bowl of beauty” well put! I like that the neighborhood is in the picture.
November 13, 2008 at 11:57 pm
Lucky for US that you noticed that pink glow, Louise. And that you ran outside to capture that wonderful morning sky.
November 14, 2008 at 12:29 am
A glorious photo, it´s wonderful. I saw it only in France, too.
Thank´s for looking.
LG,

What an amazing color!!!
November 14, 2008 at 6:26 am
Powerful pinks.
November 14, 2008 at 6:49 am
GORGEOUS sky! I love the architecture beneath it…so Albuquerque…gives it all the look of a painting, perhaps. Really neat.

Pink is my fav. color. Great shot. Happy swf and thanks for the comment.

Wonderful deep pink! So glad you noticed it this morning!
I see you are part of the SkyWatch team now! Good for you!
Have a wonderful weekend of SkyWatching! Blessings to Chicklet!
November 14, 2008 at 9:25 am
Pink!!! It’s great. I don’t think we’ve ever had a sunrise like it.
Glad to hear Chicklet is on the mends.
November 14, 2008 at 9:47 am

Have an nice weekend.

That pink glow is incredible, Louise! 🙂
November 14, 2008 at 11:08 am
A gorgeous sky. A love the Skywatch photos that give a timely shapshot of what’s happening in the person’s sky. When I look at it, I can’t help but think of the old adage “Red in the morning, Sailor’s warning”. Do you have storms brewing?
November 14, 2008 at 11:35 am
New Mexico skies are hot, too. But you are really one hot blogger! 🙂
Come gather your award.

Those colours are so intense! Wow, it must have been wonderful to look out and see it for real!
November 14, 2008 at 1:07 pm
It is magnificent. Wow, you were lucky!
November 14, 2008 at 1:08 pm
I made a mistake. I posted my former comment with the link to my French weblog.
November 14, 2008 at 1:24 pm
Such glorious pink tones! Really lovely.
November 14, 2008 at 2:01 pm

November 16, 2008 at 11:43 am
A gorgeous photo!
November 25, 2008 at 9:10 am
I can never decide between the pink, the orange and the purple sunset which one is the most beautiful – probably because they all have their charm! You’re lucky to have such a wonderful view – said someone who loves to watch the horizon…
Thanks for stopping by today and leaving an imprint!
Greetings from West Africa,
