09-10 analogy Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Usually hate working on the weekends but today I've been fortunate to be on the 10th floor of a building in Merrifield with a great view to the west. Some fantastic cloud action today. About 30 minutes ago, the skies temporarily cleared somewhat and looming above the dissipating low clouds scudding by, I could see this next line backlit by the setting sun. Pretty neat sight.
