as the storm passes DSC_0375_3249DSC_0375.JPG

Sometimes when a storm moves east,

and the western sky opens

with clouds still overhead

a wonderful low angle sunlight

paints the rim rock and the trees.

I do really like this - the composition and color/shadow of the rock formation and trees. I would like to see it cropped a bit more at the bottom as the blank darkness does nothing for the scene. It looks like there is some blue in the sky along with the clouds. Intensifying those colors would add some nice drama and cropping in from the right to the dark line that begins the primary rock formation would give focus to that primary section.

Jane, thank you! I will post a crop and also one with a bit of shadow protection to pick up a little shadow detail tomorrow. Much appreciate your input. Best, Sandy
