Cloud Sea in late afternoon

Backlit shrubs and pines overlooking a 'cloud sea' on the slopes of Mount Teide, Tenerife. The cloud-base was several thousand feet below this altitude, so this is a view of the cloud tops. The warm colour temperature wasn't as much from the sun, but from a lot of dust that had blown up on a warm wind (a 'Calima') from the Sahara dessert in Africa to the east of of the Canary Islands.
