Shortly after 6pm, from the east side of town, looking west towards downtown Portland and the West Hills, I was treated to an outstanding sunset. A beautifully layered cloud cover filled most of the sky, and through the gap to the west came all the gorgeously red sunlight you could want to light up the underneath of those clouds.

On the way home, fellow pedestrians were commenting on it. During the walk all I could think was, “Of all the days to leave my camera at home.”

Please, somebody, tell me you got that splendid vista on film or memory card…
