Sunsets in city and country

I live in a city and as we are surrounded by houses, we don't often manage to see lovely sunsets.  However, I did capture this one, although I had to crop it to remove the houses and telegraph wires.
 I thought the cloud formation looked wonderful touched with the fiery reds and oranges.
My mum, on the other hand, lives at the edge of a village and overlooks fields.
 Now that's a sunset!
 Although I love living in a city for convenience, I do feel a bit envious that I can't see the full glory of an amazing sunset like this one last Sunday.
It does make me appreciate them more when I do see them, though.
