What is happening?
The first thing coming to my mind about most of these photos is the apocalypse. Armageddon. Or rather "skymageddon". It is certainly odd, weird. Depending on how we view it, it can be scary/frightening, but of course it is still beautiful in its own way.
"Skymageddon" - that's a good one! :)
Yes, I agree! Scary, frightening in the sort of way that makes one stop and stare in fascination, in the face of danger, even if it's a matter of life & death... and that one should flee instead of freezing...
