Storm on the High Plains

Caught this somewhere along the side of the road in Wyoming last month. Crazy light...storm rolling through in the distance with rain juxtaposed with intense sun rays filtering through clouds.

Is this print for sale?

Very nice image. Have you considered cropping the top approximately 20%? IMOP it would give it a panoramic effect and reduce the dark cloud and draw you eye into the rest of the scene.
 
Thank you jeffreyg, a consideration I may just do.
bsdunek, thank you kindly for the positive words. This will definitely be printed. Now, to dust off the darkroom equipment and do some proper printing and leave the digital ink printer alone.

For those interested in the backstory: We were leaving Madison Campground in Yellowstone after a week of pleasant weather (40-50's in the day, 20's at night) with the promise that our departure day would be turning nasty. We took a different route back, along some 2 lanes vs the interstate. This was captured southeast somewhere at a rest stop below the Wind River Range. I saw the what was happening in the distance and new instinctively to leave the digital camera and the color film camera in the truck and to grab the trusty Leica loaded with delta. Light and shadows, light and shadows...
