Streaking Clouds and Loan Pine

Directly off State Route 44, approximately 5 miles from the junction with State Route 36.

Canon 6D Mark II - 24-105 f4L at 24mm and f11; ISO 160 and 30 seconds (with 6 stop ND filter)

This image captures sunset behind a lone pine on a large snowy flat (Hog Flat Reservoir in Lassen County, California, USA). I was struck by the pace at which vibrant clouds were streaking overhead. These clouds were moving at a very brisk clip that just begged for a longer exposure to convey the motion in the final image. Indeed within a minute of this capture there were no more clouds over the top of the tree.
