Inspiring Photo: Gold Lining #1786474

Gold Lining

Uploaded: February 20, 2006 06:17:37

Description

Scanned in the sky from a slide from over 20 years ago, shot from my balcony while overseas. I used a real orange filter for the color.

The barn and foreground are within walking distance of my home.
All storms have a silver lining. In this case, it's an orange lining.
