weird sunset reflection...? Moonlight Fox
I was just going to snap a pic to show my friend (hiya Das!) how dark the clouds were here, when I returned from getting my camera this is what I saw!
I've not seen something like this before, the colour comes from the sunset... only the sun was setting on the opposite side. I wasn't aware that clouds could reflect light like that..

Every cloud has a reflective polished silver lining that reflects light fairly well!

Haven't you ever heard that saying?

If the clouds are high enough, sometimes you get reflections like that. Same thing with Sundogs. It's rare, but if the conditions are right the photographs to be taken behind you are way more beautiful than the sunset can ever be in front of you.

Ah ha, i knew I had this somewhere. A lot of times when the clouds are high enough and it's clear in the west, where the sun is setting, the sunset will actually reflect off the clouds to the east and give off a great show. pict related.

Just thought Id add this one to this topic. I took it while I was flying in a Cessna over Dalarna. Dalarna lies in the middle of Sweden.

Guess I was lucky, it's a nice shot. Original pc is 7mpx, resized it.

This (>>50574) shot was a sunset. The exif data says 4pm but I seem to remember it being a little later, maybe 7pm or so. It was really strange, all of a sudden it was like this and within half an hour it was gone.

Here's another shot.

oops, upon actually reading it properly, it's 4:59pm. I still remember it being later though...

Cloudgasm!

That's a really awesome shot. Might could be it says 4:59 because you forgot to update your camera for Daylight Savings or something.

That shot is awesome, please post full resolution if it isn't too grainy.

(do note that I fully support resizing pics before posting, you are awesome for doing so)
