Gosh, they're beautiful. Fabulous photos. No idea what causes this effect, though, sorry.

Fantastic pictures!

I don't know the answer, but there was the eeriest light ouside my house at dusk (near the city centre), the whole place went a sort of a burnt orange.

Will be very interested if anyone more knowledgable comes along!
