This was taken just after sunset about 30 miles north of Dallas, TX facing South West. These clouds were the outer most reach of Hurricane Rita’s western edge.

I almost didn’t wait for this one. The thick line of clouds was hiding the sun. It was over 30 minutes after “sunrise” and still, I’d seen nothing worth looking at. I was ready to pack up and find a spot to shoot in the other direction using the sun as light instead of as a subject. But, I decided to wait it out, at least 30 more minutes.

Not 5 minutes later, the sun pushed out from behind the clouds and this appeared. Patience is key and has such beautiful rewards.
