The dawn sky was on display with the red band of haze under the clouds, analogous colors peeking over the Sierras, dark stratus clouds, light cirrus clouds and the dark blue sky. As the morning progressed, the band of haze turned fiery red and analogous radiated of of the suns path: red, orange, yellow, light green, light blue and blue sky.
