Topic: Gust Front with Cumulonimbus

[Farmtalk]

Never was much good at taking photos, but I think this is probably the best picture I have ever taken (Not saying much compared to some of the folks on here  ). The greyish black clouds are part of a gust front that you can see on the radar image below, and this sunshine-illuminated cumulonimbus (Taken at sunset) was forming right along it. I thought it might be worth sharing! The red marker in the radar image shows where I was located in West Virginia

Here is the radar image

In context, Joe, it is a really interesting shot once you've explained the situation. Including the radar image puts it all into perspective. Nice job!

I really love those "Gold" clouds and I love weather photography so - awesome and thank you very much for sharing a nice photo and some history behind it!

Thanks guys! And Kaymann, you and Aquatic have taken some FANTASTIC photos over the years here on the forum. I frequently set your photos as my desktop screen on my computer, so it is really great to hear that compliment from you! I tried to add some information on it just so that you all could see where the clouds originated
