Colores de las nubes durante el atardecer [28 fotografías]

Setting Sun on Long’s Peak and Indian Peaks
Interesting facts: The smaller the drops in a cloud the brighter the tops appear (and the darker the bases). Smaller droplets scatter more sunlight, while large drops allow more sunlight to pass through. This explains why the heavily raining part of a shower cloud or thunderstorm is usually brighter than just the cloudy part. The cloud droplets have combined into large raindrops, which allow more sunlight to pass through them. Pictures of Clouds and Sunsets credit: David Evenson

Sod Farm & Thunder Cells
I was driving past this sod farm and looking at the light and cloud formations. Then the endless sprinkler came into view. Had to pull over. Pictures of Clouds and Sunsets credit: David Evenson

Lightning Storm
We had the most incredible lightning storm I’ve ever seen last night. Literally multiple strikes every second or so for close to 40 minutes. Unfortunately most of the strikes seemed to be arcing around inside the clouds, so I didn’t see many bolts, but I did catch one. Pictures of Clouds and Sunsets credit: David Evenson
