The mothership at sunset!

After photographing the sequence at the first windmill, I continued south on Highway 70 a few more miles and went east on Ranch 2477 (the road to Lake McClellan).  I stopped again when I came across another windmill, only this one without blades... and used this as a foreground subject to photograph what was now becoming an incredible striated barrel updraft to my east.  It was right around sunset time at about 7:10 to 7:15 when I photographed the sequence of images below:
