Firestorm

Uploaded: December 31, 2012

Description

***
I was in the parking lot of a beautiful glass cathedral, facing north-east for the first two photos of this series. I then began shooting reflections on the cathedral . I noticed bright colors in the reflections at 6:05 P.M.(30 minutes after yesterday’s entry), and turned to face the west. This is just one of countless photos I shot of this amazing scene.
So ends 2012, with a bang, not a whisper!
Hope everyone in the bp community, and the bp staff, has a Happy and Healthy New Year!
