A Giant Light Modifier

As most photographers know, clouds act as a light modifier by dispersing light... softening the otherwise harsh light. Try as I may, I can't think of a larger one. In some cases, they also can create dazzling displays.

 

In the late afternoon we were our way back from Peoria, Illinois, when we pulled of the highway to photograph some fields that were covered with yellow flowers. The clouds overhead were creating beans if light that were streaming down to the yellow fields below. In this shot, however, the edge of that yellow field is on the far right.
