Good picture Frank. Definitely a dramatic cloud picture at sunrise, where the early morning sun is streaming through multiple gaps in the cloud like holy light or torch light down to earth. The cloud layer appears almost like steps you could climb and enter the multiple, light-filled gaps to get to heaven. Went through Bourke, NSW on a winter bus tour a year ago. From Rebecca Hill, Canberra, Australia.
