The sky and clouds in your photo reminds me of all the fog we had in central Ohio this past weekend.

Interesting shot. Being in the right place at the right time helps. That cloud is amazing.

Lisa,

Oregon was once part of my territory (In a past job)  I miss that place as well as all of the unique Brew pubs.

I'd love to be up on that hill in the distance and looking down on the cloud. What a great view!

Thanks for the comments, everyone. It was definitely a right-place/right-time situation. We were headed over to the Willamette Valley from Sisters early on Christmas morning and happened to drive by the state park before the cloud cover dissipated. We passed the turnoff to one of the boat ramps at Detroit Lake, and went only about 50 yards before I yelled "STOP! TURN AROUND!" Capturing the unique combo was worth the detour. It was breathtaking down there. Eerie, but awesome.
