I can almost see the brush strokes!
And it truly does fill the frame of your wide angle lens.
Thank you for sharing!

This one is almost all clouds.

The mountains are one of the few things I miss about living in that area.

(22,895 posts)10. Speaking of mountains, I live on a ridge.
Some sunsets, there are clouds on both sides, so I have to choose sides.
Long story short, I guessed right. (but I did check the other side first)
Good exercise.
