Sunset tonight
We had scattered showers all day long. It was still raining in town, but there seemed to be clearing to the west so I took a chance to run out to Cheyenne Bottoms, ~13 miles to the spot I chose. No rain there until just after sunset as I left, but a great look back to the west and the clearing and building storm clouds. Definitely one of the best sunsets I've seen in quite awhile.

Larry, I do go out to the Bottoms alot because it is close to home. The birding can be good, as well as the photography. I also have client who is wanting a sunset photo from there, so I'm working on that too :).

Rob,
Glad you have the Bottoms and this photo is rewarded with the new moon.
The pattern of the clouds make a "leading line" on this photo from the moon to what appears to be a tweak of sun.
Pull more color if possible and perhaps this may be close to what the client wants.
However, sunsets are "infinite"....
Thanks for posting.

Wow, that's one impressive atmospheric show Rob! Great catch! If your client doesn't want this one someone will.
