Went to dinner last Saturday at the Eidelweiss Restaurant just outside Staunton, Virginia and some 8 miles from Stuart's Draft, Virginia. Had a wonderful dinner of schweinshaxe and shared a dessert of bread pudding with my husband. Leaving the restaurant I noticed the sky was spectacular and changing quickly as a storm was coming in. This photograph is untouched and was taken just outside Stuart's Draft. I thought the cloud formations and colors unbelievable.
Enjoy. Click on it to enlarge...

Very pretty. Wonderful colors.
Unbelievable colors. The purple, blue and oranges are absolutely smashing! My wife is German and would surely love that restaurant. It would save her some cooking (even though she loves to cook German food... mmmm, I can taste the sweet 'n sour cabbage right now).
WOW! That is a breathtaking shot!~
Mine is, HERE. See yah!
Wow, Erin, that's spectacular. Sounds like a good dinner.
What an incredible sky! I'm glad your dinner finished when it did. You are right, both the color and cloud formations just take my breath away.
Those colours are amazing! Glad you were able to capture the moment and share it with us
It looks incredible! I love it when the underbelly of the sky lights up with all the color and has all that texture. Amazing! Glad you had your camera handy!
That's an amazing sky!
The combination of the colours wonderful.
Thanks for sharing this one, it brightens up a grey and wet day.
This is a stunning image! The colors are wonderful.
Stuart's Draft, Staunton, the restaurant.
For 30 years we drove between Chesapeake, Va and West Virginia. We have relatives in Staunton and to this day I usually see the sign for the restaurant. Small world.
Glad you stopped by my blog.
An amazing vibrant array of colours offered. Good shot.
Great photo, the colors are great and I love country shots.
It looks like a lava flow! Unbelievable, sure. Only Nature can cteate such gem.
