The Long Awaited Cloud
I think I mentioned this before, but when I first moved here, I shot a similar picture with my old junky film camera and I always wished for a cloud like that so I could redo it. After almost 17 years, I finally got it.

  I guess I should mention, that the stump is underwater about half the time, so if I did get a good cloud, the stump wasn't visible.

  Everytime I see one of your sunset shots I just think "lucky dog!" They are all so gorgeous!! I only get to see a very small portion of sky where I live. Too many trees and hills.
