Light progression

Gray, wet, wet, very dark gray... it was one of those days when the rain never seemed to stop until late in the afternoon. At 3:30, the window by my desk turned into a magnet, pulling me to stand next to it. That felt like the darkest moment of the day (from a sunlight perspective, that is). It almost seemed as if the sun was already down, even though the sun wasn't expected to set until 4:29. Dark gray sky, wet ground, but there was no more water coming from the sky.

The wind moved the heavy clouds, and patches of blue started to appear. And then the sun set and colored the sky...

Photo progression: the first photo above was shot at 4:13, and the other two were both taken at 4:32, the first while I was facing south, and the other while looking to the east.
