Ruffled clouds, medium rare. Yummy!

Absolutely gorgeous shot!

I miss these Arizona sunsets! Gorgeous sky and a nice, semi-abstract image. Good work, E.J.!

You see that I've been shooting this kind of image over my house, out walking, etc with my iPhone? Yours is much nicer, but for just uploading to all my social networking sites it can't be beat.
