This photo was taken in Dunedin, New Zealand. We experienced very high temperatures (for us) in the mid 30's celsius, with the sky an unusual hue all day. At about 8:30pm my son called us out to look at the sun, and this how it looked. An eerie beauty was very much tempered by the knowledge of what was happening in Australia, and that the colour of the sky was caused by smoke haze drifting over the Tasman sea.
