Storm front was breaking up and the clouds were really putting on a show. Took a detour on the way to work and stopped at a local park to grab some shots as the sun cleared the horizon.

I really liked the way the stone base was reflecting the sky. Nearly passed this spot by as I was heading out of the park. The camera was just a few inches above ground level pointed up at an extreme angle. Hope that works for a unique "Point of View". :-)
