Coming home

Yesterday I saw one of the most beautiful sights I can remember, driving through the big cutting in the hill as you go up the M40, rounding the corner so the view out to the west is revealed on the left. About 8pm towards the end of what had been a fiery sunset; now a red glow. The sky purple and grey, down to a thin intense red line on the horizon. Below it a wide expanse of fields stretching in from the horizon; dark grey, almost blue in the far distance, graduating to a deep, dark green. And the motorway streaming white with car headlamps curving away northwards.

All accompanied by Dave Pierce's Dance Anthems on radio 1 :)
