Flickr Find: Burning Clouds

Posted on 25 May 2007 · 975 views · 160 words.

This image from Flickr shows the rising Sun as it glows through the clouds. It is quite reminiscent of nebula containing or reflecting powerful light from stellar nurseries and is a good reminder that sometimes these nebulae are not always as they seem. By that I mena than in this image, the Sun is not actually in amongst the cloud but does look a lot like it could be.

But its a lovely picture never-the-less and if anyone has a similar effect captured on video I’d be very interested to see it.
