For Cloud Lovers - Clouds Like Wild Fire

Clouds at Sunset, Oregon Dunes NRA, Oregon  © Doug Hickok

As the day ends, a cluster of clouds blowing inland from the sea is torched by the light of the setting sun, just as they scurry dramatically over a ridge of grassy dunes.
May your weekend be as breathtaking as clouds ablaze with sunset's fire.

    I think cloud on the left looks like a map.
    Perhaps, Hokkaido in Japan? ;)

    The little ones are chasing after the big one...it must be nice to have the whole sky to play tag in.

    I love how those elegant and gracious clouds are flooded with golden light. Great silhouette of the meadow too, it makes the composition perfect!
