Sun behind cloud
Sun behind cloud

I took this picture on my way home from work one afternoon. The bus stop is just under a mile (about 1.5km) from where I live. When I got off the bus, I saw this, and walked over to a nearby Starbucks, where I sat at an outdoor table for about 15 minutes, taking picture after picture. This one turned out to be the best of the lot. Other than rotating the image, I did not edit this one in any way. I considered cropping it to take out the palm trees in the lower right-hand corner, but decided to leave them in, since cropping the picture to remove them would also take away the lower part of the sky.

This cloud, by the way, turned out to be far less threatening than it appears in the picture. We had no rain that evening.
