Sometimes it’s not about intense color
Tunnel View is probably one of the world’s most photographed sights. And as such, it’s difficult to do it with any sort of originality.

As the sun set, the clouds took on golden hues, and moved constantly. But the color faded, and the clouds remained. The sky took on a soft pink hue.
I kept shooting, hoping my camera could capture the subtle colors and the play of receding light on the clouds. I captured it, and post production brought out what the camera couldn’t capture. Enjoy.
