Sunset Storm and Moon

2018-08-14 By Roger Edwards

Capturing not only the intensity and hue of a sky, but doing so across its breadth and scope, just isn’t possible with even the best of cameras.  Hence, the true sensory volume of the colorful High Plains sunset experience can’t be done due justice, except in person.  Of course, having a super wide angle lens can help!  Here, the moon was almost directly overhead.  The sun set just moments before, its rays chopped by the wall of ragged convective clouds, on the other side of the sky. What a great way to finish a hard-earned and deeply fulfilling rendezvous with a beautiful supercell! 7 NNW Lenorah TX (5 May 6) looking ESE 32.398, -101.888

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
