Kits Gulf Island Sunset Vancouver Feb 3 2011 DSC_7976.jpg

During a winter sunset here in Vancouver it's not uncommon to have a bank of cloud suspended over the city but clear sky over the Straight of Georgia due west of us. When this happens the light from the setting sun bounces off the waters of the straight and up into the cloud base suspended over the city. When this happens we get this spectacular underside illumination of the cloud bank that shows a side of mother nature that's nothing short of drop-dead-gorgeous.

Love all your photos Doug...I am a cloud/sky watcher so I find this one particularly appealing. Nicely done!
