This evening's sunset.

 

Boy, I sure do love me some apocalyptic-style imagery^

Apocalyptic Skies

I seem to be on a bit of a "hellfire" jag lately.  It's probably not healthy...

Res Ipsa Loquitur

Revelation Chapter 10, Verse 1:

"And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud;  and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun..."

No 'feet like pillars of fire' -- but it's perhaps a good thing that this iteration today of that mighty vision was incomplete.  I don't think most people would have been ready for the real thing.  I certainly wasn't.

Something Really, Truly, Is Going On Up There

Is it just me or is there a truly extraordinary amount of weirdness going on up there in the skies lately?

One evening last week, as I was leaving work I saw a beautiful sunset and snapped a few photos in the parking lot. I was checking them out just now, and when I came across this one I noticed something odd straightaway:

I heightened the color and contrast, and saw exactly what I thought I saw;  a skeletal dragon with outstretched wings, swooping down -- or perhaps falling down, like a certain angel who fell and became known as a dragon.

Alternatively, if you turn the image upside-down, it looks like a fiery red dragon rising from the depths of the dark waters toward a flaming sky, carrying a serpent in its crocodilian jaws..

If anyone does not find this apocalyptic image disturbing, they must, like Siegfried, be totally ignorant of fear;  either that, or they're already under some glamour worked by this leviathan to make humans selectively blind. In fact, that latter could well explain why no one else around me seemed to notice it. I must be somehow immune to the spell...

This fact adds a new urgency to my mission as Monster Scout; whatever these otherworldly creatures' purpose, it is clearly something that affects us, probably adversely -- why else would they take the trouble to mask their existence from our sight?

And the recent increase in their activity may well mean something big is coming up. I haven't a clue as to what that could be; all I can say is, it fills me with apprehension...
