Three Sentinels Of Dusk

These three cumulus towers resemble sentinels guarding the eastern horizon as seen from the site of the new Bowman Meadows housing development, under construction in Marion, Iowa. The towers are reflecting the sun which had set at 8:38 PM on this evening (Wednesday, July 18, 2012). The top image was shot at 8:43PM and the bottom at 8:45 PM. The clouds were located about 50 miles away.
