Hello Earthsky!

This is a shot I took this past June of a storm moving off Hampton Beach, New Hampshire just around sunset. It was really cool to see with so much going on during that storm and so many different colors in every direction. The sun low on the horizon caused the tail end of the storm clouds to light up in an awesome orangey glow.

Thank you, Josh!
