Red Clouds in the Morning

When I move out from home to work, the amazing scene in the east attracted me. I quickly drive to a nearest location where a wide view is available & ready to take photo. However, just within a minute, the amazing shining red clouds start to turn pale. What I captured is a little bit late but still nice.
