Yesterday morning I ventured out into my backyard Silver Sands Beach hoping for a image. Sky was kind of empty and sunrise was coming. I looked behind and saw a streak of clouds floating into my composition. They were to low to be under lit but awesome enough to add drama to my image. So greatful!!!
