Welcome to rural northeast Iowa, U.S.A. where fire-breathing dragons rule over sunsets!
Have no fear……its not really a dragon. (Its an old hay mower.)

Next we have a mountain range etched in evening sunlight:
Nah……you’re too smart to be fooled……there are no mountains in Iowa.

Here’s one more sunset scene for good measure:

Beautiful is such an understatement for these.
All magnificent shots and I like your humorous take on them. :) I think Kansas and Iowa have similar skies, since the terrain is very much alike...
Great skies and great dragon! :-)
Takes my breath away! I like your dragon.
Great photos!
I love the dragon, great shots.
Have a great weekend!

Your photos are lovely, as I've said many times before, Sunset pictures are my favorite.
Really neat photos - I especially like the dragon ;)
I enjoyed your whimsical photos! Beautiful colors you have in IO. I also like the name of your blog.
The dragon is brilliant. I think I'll just put my camera back in its box and consider drinking as a hobby.
Beautiful sunsets....gorgeous colors...recognized your dragon, I live in farming country also...
your photo is really soothing to gaze at. thanks

To Lord Sempringham: Don't you dare do that!!
Superb post, love the dragon and the gold lining to your 'mountains'
and the bonus sunset as well!
Just brilliant.
absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
I cant wait to see you in person and see some Iowa skies :)
Awsome!!!!!!
A dragon was the first thing I thought of when your site popped up on my computer. I love it!!!
Great photos. Thanks for sharing. Happy Friday
Very pretty sky. And the dragon is cool!
I love driving along the highway when the skyline in front looks like the shoreline of some coastal resort. You can pretend you're on some fantastic vacation in the tropics and heading down to the beach!
Love that "dragon". Great eye you have, my dear.

Hi, Arija, Babooshka, Laura, Patti, nature ramblings, Lene, Poetikat,
Thanks to all of you, too, for stopping by to view these sky pictures and for your great comments!
As a kid, I often pretended the clouds on the horizon were mountains. What else can we do here in flat Iowa??
The fire coming from the dragon's nose was caught by accident.
Lovely sky watch photos. You had me fooled on the mountains for a moment. I'm glad you cleared it up or I'd be searching all over the 'net looking for where there are mountains in Iowa!
Thanks for coming by my blog for SWF!
Awesome and such whimsical photos!
