The storm was rapidly closing in on us. The sky was gray. The temperature was falling. Then the mouth of the canyon, to the north, began to glow. The Lizard raced across the slushy, snowy, muddy four-wheel drive road so I could capture the glorious crimson sunset.
The sky was on fire. My camera was clicking non-stop. I was shivering, but I didn't care.
And then it happened. A sharp, red hot solar ray pierced the dense blanket of clouds and literally illuminated the jagged basin where we'd just been. If only we had stayed put!!!
Wow, that is beautiful!
