Holy moly. I reckon that second pic was taken with a filter - I've never seen a dust cloud anything like that shade of red, and I've seen plenty of dust.

That dust came over the mountains, from at least five hundred kilometres away. Damn.

Nah, no filter, it's for real. I woke up this morning and my whole appartment was bright yellow. (I don't get up til 8am) but anyone up around the 4am mark was treated to a blood red sky.
