I titled this photo ‘Fire Burst’ because of the interesting sunset. After the sun was well behind the mountain, new clouds lit up that weren’t colored at all before. They looked like a bunch of bubbles that popped and then became static in their motion. I shot this using a neutral density filter and used a long exposure time with a f22 aperture to bring out the colors and also create a little bit of movement in the sky.
