One of the craziest skies I have ever witnessed....... I walked by the window, my jaw hit the floor, something audible came out of my mouth, I have no idea what.....I grabbed my camera, I adjusted my settings as fast as I could, I raised the lens and captured this......Just as a flock of red-winged blackbirds flew through the scene... It was about 15 minutes before official sunset, and the sun angle was just right to throw shadows from Longs Peak and Mount Meeker into the sky. I have seen something similar before, but not quite this crazy. Nikon Z9 with Nikkor 180-600mm F5.6-6.3 lens at 280mm, ISO 80, 1/500sec, handheld. Northern Colorado 1-29-2024(Best viewed large for details. :: [Hilary Bralove]

I witnessed this once in the Aravaipa Wilderness of Arizona. What a sight, especially being 10 miles deep in the wild 📷 Hilary Bralove
