Thanks so much for sharing. It looks like a painting (to my uneducated eyes).

(53,344 posts)7. Very cool.
I saw that once out my back door a couple of years ago....spectacular. Then later I saw that my brother-in-law had an almost identical photo, that is how unusually gorgeous the sky was that night. I bet a lot of others in San Diego captured the image too.
