Jacob's Ladder - HDR Photo
"The clouds prepare for battle
In the dark and brooding silence.
Bruised and sullen stormclouds
Have the light of day obscured.
Looming low and ominous
In twilight premature
Thunderheads are rumbling
In a distant overture...
All at once, the clouds are parted.
Light streams down in bright unbroken beams...
Follow men's eyes as they look to the skies.
The shifting shafts of shining weave the fabric of their dreams..."
(from 'Jacob's Ladder' by Rush)
Crepuscular rays burst through the stormy skies above the Lower Dart Valley on the border between the South Hams and Dartmoor areas of Devon. The view here overlooks Rill Farm and the hamlet of Colston on the west bank of the River Dart.

Very realistic job, here. Only washed out in upper left clouds. Otherwise perfect.
