I was excited to see the clouds starting to show signs of color this morning, and then I saw a fully lit cruise ship approaching. I knew it would be a great combination. I took a succession of photos as the cruise ship passed by–some zoomed in, some wide angle.
The photo you see here was the peak of the color in the clouds, which slowly faded in and out but only lasted at this intensity for a few seconds. Luckily you can still see the illuminated cruise ship, even though it looks smaller in the distance, but the clouds ended up stealing the show this morning.
