Telescope, storm & sunset

Storm clouds threaten in the sky opposite the setting sun in this view. The 84 inch telescope on Kitt Peak is in the dome and was the largest telescope on Kitt Peak for a time after it was built in the early 1960s. This view is from next to the Kitt Peak 36 inch telescope just east of the WIYN. This exposure was made at 18mm focal length with an exposure of 1/250 seconds at f/8, ISO 800.
