wonderful detail, angle and color here -- a solemn mood -- but beautifully so!

Wow, such a dramatic image Lisa, it's like you can "feel" this image. I love the beautiful touch of light that luminates the sky just behind the cross and makes the dark sky even more dramatic, lovely tone here. Well done!

Hi Lisa,
Everything has been said over the light, colours and exposure ! I agree !
What's the size of that cross ? Could be 10 meters high ! ???
If not, wich aperture ?
Cheers,

@Jean-Michel: Hi Jean-Michel, thank you :) It was average size, it's just the angle that makes it look big.
I did'nt save the shooting information. The camera used was a Fujica Finepix S9500, not an slr, but a good camera.

Wonderful photo. The cross in the foreground and the trees look incredible against the dark heavy storm clouds.
I only got light like this once, it was just after a violent thunderstorm had cleared.

@tim ayers: It was'nt unusual out there Tim. I don't find we get it so much where we live now even though it's only an hour away. The light out there could be magical. It was particularly glorious at sunset just after a duststorm, which was a common event.
