Storm clouds over Bucks Flats
Wow!! I really like this 
I like everything about it! Great clouds, great composition. Great landscape.
Looks like it should be an oil painting.
But where the hell is NB? New Brighton?

Storm clouds over Bucks Flats
I keep forgetting this forum is international... 
NB = New Brunswick, Canada.
The Bay of Fundy has some of the highest tides in the world - roughly a 10m/30ft range. This spot is in the upper reaches of the Bay, at the mouth of the Memramcook River. The mudflats and gravel in the foreground are covered at high tide. This is also where pretty much the entire global population of semi-palmated sandpipers stops to fuel up before migration, eating little shrimp-like critters that live in the mud. Fantastic flocking behaviour, I'll have to try to get some shots next fall.
I'm glad you like it! It took a bit of pp to bring the colours out in the sky - at first I thought it hadn't come out at all. Thanks for the compliments!
