Skywatch Friday - Rainy Season In Jakarta

Happy Friday!!

When people think of Jakarta, they think "concrete jungle" when it is actually a pretty green city with lots of trees...

I caught this photo at just the perfect time when there is that blue/green cast that lasts only a minute or so late in the afternoon before the sun sets...forgive me if I posted this photo last year...I can't remember if I did or not...ha ha...ya, gettin' old.

Have a great weekend, and be sure to take a tour around the world HERE to see other skies...

Yes, I see much green.
The perspective is mind boggling, the sky on fire. Almost doesn't look real.
And the previous shot in Kathmandu just blows me away.

Great shot, but there is still more concrete than jungle.
