Wanted to get a shot in for the last day of this side challenge and had to go for one in the front yard. I'd considered already doing a sunset, so here it is. :-)

Nice sun rays. Personally, I'd be tempted to saturate and darken the clouds a bit more, but you did a nice job holding some detail in the darker landscape areas in the face of "significant" backlighting.

Thanks Paul. I spot metered on the sky to lock in the exposure. That helped with keeping some details. As for the clouds, I really didn't do much to this photo at all (in a bit of a hurry to get it posted and take care of some other items this evening). Honestly, the darker area was a bit too noisy so I really didn't want to put that much effort into post on it.
