I had just set off to work from where i live in Westhoughton, i could see the sky from my back garden, but the photo's are taken from Eatock lodge, a small nature reserve just round the corner, the time was 7.45 a.m, another 15 mins and it was all over, i have just been reading about Noctilucent clouds, and think they may be formed in the cloud structure, faintly.
Find out more here, facsinating stuff !

If that's what the end of the world looks like, I don't mind if it happens more often.

I took some camcorder footage, even more dramatic with more cloud above Fife.

slightly darker red over this way but very similar.was on my way home at 7.30 or just after

Very similar to what i was looking at on the way to East Kilbride (Glasgow) this morning.
I think what i was looking at was either Altocumulus usually appear after a storm or Stratocumulus which are suppose to leave with showers then clearing for the night sky.
The later of the two i think as it was raining this afternoon (again) either way nice to look at, a change from the usuall grey.
