This photo was taken using an iPhone 12 camera. The image depicts clouds on a starry night at 10:16 PM. The image was taken in Leadville, CO while camping so there is no light pollution so the stars and moon were bright enough to light up the sky. Below is the Skew T diagram for the night the photo was taken.

Hi Sierra
This is a really nice image of the night clouds with the silhouette of the trees and the starry sky as the background. This composition gives the image a bit of mystique. The trees also give a bit of perspective in size.
Nice work!
I also like that this image was taken at night. You did a great job capturing these clouds with such a dark shot overall.
I like that this image was taken at night, it makes it unique. I think the trees also add a lot of depth to the image and the clouds look cool with the stars in the background
