The gorgeous altocumulus clouds riding high in the sky over Central Alabama tonight produced a spectacular sunset. It looked like the sky was absolutely on fire!

This picture was taken by me (from the passenger seat) tonight as we drove west on I-59/20 toward downtown Birmingham.

I am sure there will be dozens of other beautiful photos of this scene on our Flickr stream tonight. Send them to [email protected].
