A Fleeting Moment #2

[Andrew McLachlan]

165096

This image was created roughly 3 minutes after the previous post using the same 35mm focal length. The intensity of lighting for this frame is much more dramatic and the cloud formation has become much bigger than in the previous post as well. I prefer this frame for the more dramatic lighting and for the light hitting the cliff face along the "Sleeping Giant" land formation.

Beautiful!

Better! Even though longer focal length would show the cliff more but I think it will take away from the cloud formation. Nicely done, Andrew!!

[Morkel Erasmus]

Yes this is even better, great frame of a moment that was probably spellbinding to observe as well!

[Luis Patacao]

Great colors and great cloud Andrew, very nicely done!

I agree, unusual and unique capture for sure. I like the red light along the cliffs and the light and subtle mist along the shore line. Notice that the red light at the shoreline drops off on the right and left edges of the frame; is that the lens or maybe just the clouds and the shadows? Awesome frame.
