Expedition
After a hot day with thunderstorms, it was shorts weather. The wet barley field soaked my feet and legs but the shorts remained dry. A public footpath ran parallel with the field and easily-followed tractor tracks led to the hashpoint. It was dusk. The rain had stopped. The moon had not yet risen above the low clouds on the horizon.
On my drive home I saw a "biblical" pillar of fire. Moonlight was shining on tall cumulonimbus clouds. The moon itself could not be seen and the clouds looked like flame, 20 000 feet high.
