A Beautiful Mess

A little different than my usual sunset time stack, but not because I did anything drastically differently. Instead of the usual streaks of clouds in the sky, this one seems a little more random because there were two layers of clouds. The colourful clouds were behind the much quicker moving dark clouds, and as the dark clouds moved across the scene, they would block parts of the colourful clouds, creating breaks in the streaks.

This is 245 photos merged into one image using the lighten layer-blending mode in photoshop, automated using this script. advancedstacker.com
