And then the clouds came... Photo

Photographer’s Note

This shot was taken two hours ago when these clouds crawled from Kumbaya all the way up to the center of Quito covering the buildings. it was a spectacular sight because you could see them moving... Half an hour later everything was over. I'm still glad to be able to enjoy this view every night!
No PP!

Very good capture of the city lights! The timing was excellent, and the composition is really interesting with this cloud invading the city. Could be in the category "decisive moments"!

Very nice colors and clarity with regards to the clouds which seem like a ghost going downtown . Thanks, Tibo

Hi Andreas,
What a great sceen. Just amazing to see those clouds rolling over the city. Good sharpness and colors. Could crop a little of the top, but I like it!

Hi
nice photo, well focused and framed. It looks a bit over exposed though. But for a such long exposure it is still a great shot of a beautiful place.
Thanks for sharing.
