Description
One minute before the sunset, and the beginning of one of the most spectacularly colorful sunsets I could ever hope to witness. The scene was at Saguaro National Park and Tucson Mountain Park, west of the Tucson Mountains and Tucson, Arizona in early October.
Beginning at this moment, and for the following 18 minutes I was able to make dozens of photographs to document this marvelous show as the brilliant sunset bathed those splendid clouds with vivid and rapidly changing color. These photographs will be displayed in the order they were made for my new collection: Evolution of the Sunset, October 4th, 2009.

This photograph was made at 6:02:42 PM, and the exposure was 1/8 second at f/32. Focal length of the lens was 50mm.
