I didn't think this one was going to work out. All the heavy cloud cover was preventing the sun from hitting the dunes as the sun was setting. In the last few moments the sun sank below the cloud line and cast light across the scene in front of me. The light kissed off of the side of the dunes and bottom of the clouds. Pockets of falling rain set aglow as they worked their way across the valley and the haze in front of the sun cleared away enough to allow the perfect sunburst to break through.
