Mammatus Clouds Sunset Over Quebec Fog

Purple and gold light illuminates hanging mammatus clouds against a darkening sky above a landscape shrouded in low marine fog. The cloud formations dangle like heavy sacks, their undersides glowing with the last warmth of the sun. Below, the fog pools in valleys and low-lying areas, creating a soft, white sea that obscures the ground. The horizon line sits low, showing the vastness of the sky. Colors shift from deep violet at the cloud tops to bright amber near the horizon. The fog dampens the distant terrain, blending earth and sky in a quiet, late spring evening. A faint orange reflection glows on the edge of a thick fog bank in the foreground.
