A sunset for a rainy day



2008-01-29 - Columbia - Photo By George Kolbenschlag.
Here's a photo for a rainy day. I took this January 10 when we had that beautiful sunset. I was sorting through my files this afternoon and came across it again. This is right out of the camera. No editing or adjusting of any kind. It's taken from the parking lot behind the Lindsey Wilson gym facing the soccer field (you can see the soccer field light poles.)
Thanks, George, for sharing this photo to help pick up spirits in today's bleak, constant rain. Clicking read-more goes to additional scenic photos and travel guide.
