Brilliance after the Storm

[Mad Aussie]

We had storm pass through our area yesterday afternoon which left plenty of cloud and character in the sky. Although it didn't allow the sunset to engulf the whole sky it did put on a show of brilliance in the dying minutes ...

Thanks Jimmy.

Added a 2nd shot (different photo but taken shortly before the top one) with a bit different processing.

Great shots! Seems like you get a fair amount of T-Storms by you? Love them, can watch them for hours!

Wow...getting quite the sunsets these days...is that snow on the mountain to the right????

Great pictures, MA. I think I prefer the first one - there is more cloud texture because of the darker parts.

We usually do get lots of storms this time of year (summer) but the past couple of years we've had very few.

Not snow (I'd have been up there in a flash if it was) , cloud which formed as we watched.

Thanks JC, Casil and MM :)
