Stormy Sunset and Silhouette Sunday

We've had some tumultuous weather recently, with a very hot spell (it hit 80°F - the horror!) followed by storms. One evening, I thought it would be a gray evening hike but I was wrong!

When we climbed up to a high plateau, the views were fabulous.

Look at those thunderhead clouds!

And, sweet Shyla was even up for being my silhouette model! It was an odd composition for a silhouette photo though. It almost looks like the big orange cloud is coming out of Shyla's back!
Sometimes, stormy weather makes for the best sunset weather!

    Storm clouds are a key ingredient in fabulous sunsets. That is an amazing sky.

    Those sunset shots are beautiful! I love storms - the clouds fascinate me. Shyla's silhouette makes it even better!

    I still have my pictures from my one and only attempt at taking silhouette pictures. It was 5 years ago, and you had told me if you get the sun angled right, it creates rainbows behind the dog. :)

    The storm heads look much different from that height.

    That's the good thing about clouds, they do make sunrises and sets spectacular.
