PHOTOS: Kamloops captures a colourful, smoke-free sunset

After days of smoke, rain cleared Kamloops skies over the weekend, making way for a gorgeous sunset Sunday night. Kamloopsians also awoke to an equally stunning sunrise Monday morning.

Amateur and professional photographers alike took to social media to post their best shots. Here are some favourites and remember to tag #KamloopsBCNow on all your local photography!
