  • A fiery winter sunrise colors the sky surrounding Mount Rainier, the tallest mountain in Washington state.

At left, smaller peaks do the same, resulting in bands of light known as crepuscular rays.

  • A band of cirrus clouds take on pastel colors at sunset in the sky over Mount Larrabee and the Boulder Peaks in the North Cascades of Washington state.

It is located less than a mile and a half south of the Canadian border and was originally known as Red Mountain. During the summer months, its red peak, caused by the oxidation of iron in its rock, is distinct.

  • The sunrise colors the sky above the Kilauea Caldera and Mauna Loa in this view from Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii.

  • A fiery sunset colors the sky above several slash pine trees (Pinus elliotti) in the Pinelands of the Florida Everglades. Pine trees cannot survive if submerged for extended periods, and therefore grow only at the highest elevations in the Everglades – only a few feet higher than the lowest points. Slash pine trees are specially adapted to survive fires, however, which destroy invasive species.

Three turkey vultures are visible soaring in the sky above the saddle between two of the peaks.

The cliffs are made up of sedimentary rocks, primarily sandstone, siltstone, limestone, and shale, that have eroded over millions of years. The Vermilion Cliffs were designated as the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument in 2000.

  • The full moon falls into total eclipse, becoming what is popularly referred to as a blood moon on January 20, 2019. Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth passes between the sun and the moon, blocking direct sunlight from reaching the moon's surface. A small amount of red-orange light, however, bends around the Earth and passes through its atmosphere, a phenomenon known as Rayleigh scattering, causing the moon to glow red during the totality phase of the eclipse.

  • A series of cumulus clouds develop and grow as the sun sets over Snohomish County, Washington. Cumulus means "heap" or "pile" in Latin, and the clouds typically form where warm air rises and reaches a level of cold air where the moisure in the air condenses.
