Light Trails & Sunset on Twin Peaks
When I looked up at the sky yesterday afternoon, I could tell that the sunset was going to be one to remember. I just needed to figure out where I could go to capitalize on the incredible cloud display.
I thought about heading to the beach, but it looked like most of the clouds were East of the coast.
I ended up choosing Twin Peaks, as I thought it would make for an awesome photo if I could get a brilliant sunset combined with car light trails bending around the hill.
What a day it was. It started off with the Space Shuttle Endeavor's farewell flight around the Bay Area, and then this sunset capped it off.

Excellent. The light trails add a really cool dynamic. Apparently, yesterday's sunset was a winner throughout the bay area. Good work!

Yup yesterday was quite an awesome day. Shuttle flyby + epic sunset. You captured the textures of the clouds well and you got your vision with the light trails!
