Cloud Serpent

I took this picture on Saturday in Fort Tryon Park overlooking the Hudson River and the Palisades Cliffs. While I usually don’t get caught up in the cliché of cloud pictures and sunset shots, I thought this streaky contrail with the sun in its python’s belly was rather stunning. With the sky so overcast, there really was no other indication that the sun was out at all. You can never capture these scenes quite right in a photograph. This exposure offers a satisfactory hint.
