This is the weirdest sky transition I've ever seen, this all happened in 10 minutes, and sometimes the sky changed in the time from when I hit the shutter to when the shutter fired (had the timer on with my tripod so I didn't jar the camera when hitting the shutter) :D

Actually a funny story with this, I was in a field doing these, and some hunters drove by REALLY slowly about 5 or six times... now I was close enough they knew I wasn't a deer (what kind of deer wears a bright red Nike hat?) but I guess they thought I was taking a photo of some, because they were paying VERY close attention whenever I moved the tripod position...

And, without further adieu, the series (best of 18) :D

Thanks all :) A big rainstorm was just on its way out as the sun was setting, which created the funky cloud formations :)

Edit: Replaced with one image for better organization ;)

True to the old adage "Red sky at night: sailor's delight" it was bright and sunny today :)
