I love sponging - it's my favorite method for doing skies. And this image from ODBD's Keep Climbing just begs for a wonderful sky. It looks a little surreal here but I've been amazed more times than I can count with God's artistic touch when I see a sunset. The changes in colors - pinks, purples, blues in unexpected combinations - I almost tossed this one because of that streak of dark sky but I decided to forge ahead because I do believe this sky is entirely possible. :)
