This image was taken in Newport, KY during a great weekend of exciting adventures with daring friends and reuniting with someone special. We found ourselves a great rooftop perch from which we had a commanding view of the sunset over the Cincinnati skyline as a storm rolled in, and I was able to catch this lucky shot looking south just as we were packing up to leave. I hastily set my tripod down and fired a quick series at f10, ISO200 for about 1 second each, and I'm glad it paid off.
That weekend was a sort of culmination of this year's passing seasons of personal turbulence for me, and this image personifies it. The power is in the message; be ready when opportunity strikes!
Thanks for looking!
