Wildlife Image of the Week Steve Canuel for week ending 7/15/2011 - Evening Clouds

Congratulations Steve Canuel for your image "Evening Clouds" being chosen as the Wildlife Image of the Week for the week ending 7/15/2011!!!

From last weekend, evening storms were passing through the area. This was taken after 8 pm, facing at an angle towards the sunset as the last rays illuminated the clouds. I like it but not sure how well it translate as an image to those who weren't there to enjoy the scene. Some banding in the sky when I saved for web not really visible in the TIFF. 7D, 500/4, f5.6, 1/250s, ISO 800, +1.33 EC, cloned out a dark blob in the FG grass, HH from vehicle, cropped, 79% of original.
