Last Saturday I was driving under a heavy sky when i saw this break in the clouds. I remembered the challenge and i thought it could be an interesting frame as the sun was coming out through it.
So i found a place to pull over and run as fast as i could, to get the camera, tripod and be in place for the shot.
I set the camera, took a shots to measure the scene and saw that the wide lens i had on was, obviously, not the one i should use. So i run back to the car to change lenses. By the time i was ready to shoot with the tele the sun was almost hidden behind the clouds.
I was lucky enough to get 3 shots and i think the texture of the clouds is better in this one. I know there will be a lot of sunsets and sunrises in this challenge but i didn't had time to shoot something else all week. So...

| The clouds covering the sun are a nice capture, the overall picture is a bit dark though. |
