Witches sky at sunset

Approx 8:00 pm and the last of a refracted sunset, building up to rain. It lasted only a minute or two. I just had time to grab the camera and shoot a couple of quick shots.
I had to use a sensitivity of 1600 ISO. The image was full of noise which I have eliminated. There has been however a consequent loss of detail in the tree branches. I still like it though.

Olympus E-520
1/10s f/4.0 at 60.0mm iso1600 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Lyle, you captured it at the right time, looks even more spectacular on a big screen.

The panorama crop really focusses the attention on the brooding sky. You've given me an idea for a moody sky I shot recently. Hope you don't mind me trying your idea.

Really good moody panoramic image. Don't eucalypts make brilliant silouettes?
