Headline
Dramatic sky during thunderstorm at sunset in Val d'Hérens (Switzerland)
Caption
At sunset, orange sunbeams illuminated the beginning of the Val d’Hérens from the left, while at the same time a thunderstorm with heavy rainfall moved through the valley from right to left.

For about five minutes, this created a striking play of colors: from bright yellow through warm orange (the moment captured in this photo) to deep dark blue, as the sun disappeared completely below the horizon.
