The dynamic nature of the sun is like a drug, I can't get enough of it! LOL

Just another moment in time:

Nice sketch, Stephen. Your technique is really coming along. Marine layer rolled in today, so no chance to see these for myself.

Clear skies.

Nice catch again. We are roasting here and prepping for heavy thunderstorms or I would give it a whirl.
