Hole in the Cloud

Description


The sunset last night provided an amazing show of dancing sunbeams. Clouds were sailing by quite rapidly with enough breaks between them to let the sun shine through and shoot out rays into the humid air. It was difficult to pick out the best photo… from so many. This one was one of the most unique.
