Hi all,
we had severe thunderstorm yesterday. We had super heavy rain with strong winds. At 7.30 pm, when rain had stopped, I looked through the window to the West, I noticed that heavy clouds had started clearing up after the rain stopped. I rushed to the Park in the hope to get nice sunset colors as I knew that it usually happens after a thunderstorm. When I reached the Park, Sun was till showing up but there were not many clouds in that area. I was kind of disappointed that I will not get colors in this situation. When the sun went down and just after ten minutes, the sky started filling up with light clouds and they were getting colors from the setting sun and reflecting it on the water. After ten more minutes, I saw such a tremendous show of colors in the sky and on the water which I had not seen before. I was kind of confused what to do and how to capture the colors. I was running from one side to other of the fishing pier and some time to the boats. I was not much thinking about the composition but just looking at the colors. The show went on for half an hour or so. I share the photos which have red, purple, orange, blue, pink and yellow colors.

Beautiful shots. My first thought was that you had really focused on including excellent composition along with the color. You said that wasn't your focus so you must have an instinct for it because the compositions are excellent.
