Sunset Storm: Remarkable Clouds & Contrast at the Park

There's nothing cooler (literally) than a surprising storm in the summer right during sunset. Dark clouds form on one side while the sun sets by the lake, creating a breathtaking scene with clear, striking contrast.

Beauty After the Storm: Sunset Colors in the Clouds

The clouds can be the most erratic, unique, and astonishing after a storm, creating unexpected shapes, textures, and views across the sky.

This was quite the spectacle, seeing the different cloud patterns as the sun started to set on a winter day. 

After the Storm: Cloudy Sunshine & Glass Reflections

Chihuly Garden & Glass Part II: Walked outside of this spectacular museum and caught this at the right moment. The sun decided to come out and created these saturated cloud reflections on the glass windows!

It was a humid, muggy summer day in the city after a downpour. The passing storm created some pretty shocking effects at sunset.

Chaos After the Storm: High Contrast Clouds Effect

After one of the biggest storms hit the city, the rain stops and the sky slowly begins to clear...but not fast enough. I look up and notice these striking clouds, the remains from the storm. 

I ended up playing up the effects of this by upping the contrast and saturation to create this high contrast clouds imagery of the city.
