What A Sky This Evening - 04-26-2011, 09:45 PM

From this....

Thank you, Keith. This cell was incredible.... photos as far away as San Marcos and San Antonio were able to catch it. It was the only cloud in an otherwise clear sky.

+1, colors are just beautiful. Sometimes we get clouds like this over the bay. I can sit for hours and watch them form.
