Sunset in Calgary last nite
We flew into calgary from kitchener on route to victoria last nite at sunset.
I dont know how many of the calgary folks saw the sunset, but it was absolutely breathtaking. Glorious brilliant huge red sun sinking slowly, while the dark clouds whisped by. I have to tell you that I cant remember ever seeing a more beautiful sunset. Calgary looked so beautiful in the dark with the lights of the city glowing so lovely as we took off for victoria. Hope you were able to enjoy it as much as we did. |

Re: Sunset in Calgary last nite
I read somewhere recently, that the sunsets and sunrises are rather super right now as the atmosphere has dust in it from a volcanic eruption in the Aleution Islands
So make the most of it!! Shame no piccies |

Picture could not have been taken from the airport. The sun does not set in the south. ;) This picture was taken from somewhere E or SE of the downtown core. |
