The image shows stratocumulus clouds above Boulder. It was taken at around 6:25 p.m. on October 17, 2023. I chose not to edit the image because I think the original captured the beauty of this cloud system perfectly. The image was taken with an iPhone 11 Pro, with an ISO of 80, an aperture of f/1.8, and a focal length of 4.22 mm.

Hi Ari, I like how you captured the movement and clash of the clouds.
These clouds are beautiful. I think the choice to not edit them was great, as the colors and contrast are already so striking.
These clouds were so impressive seeing them in person that evening. It’s even more impressive when you realize you didn’t edit your picture!
