Description
Mid-afternoon cumulus build up during summer months over the Annam Cordillera north of DaNang, VietNam. Often these clouds drifted toward the coast and resulted in brief, heavy thunderstorms.
This picture was taken during final approach from the north on a C-118 to DaNang AB in July 1967 and a polarizing filter was used. It was taken as a slide, a print was made in 1969, and the print was scanned in 2004.

gigantisch! Was für ein wundervolles Foto!!!!!!!
An awesome piece.
Nice landscape and great color.
Beautiful landscape and wonderful photo.
Excellent image Sig, very atmospheric, I like the light patch where it looks like a pathway around the coastline, not a bad job at all from a 40 year old slide. Superb work and narrative. Bravo!!!!!
Marvellous to see this!
Stunning capture, Sig. I love the gentle hues. Diane.
Very dramatic Sig - Wow, you have been around the world!!! :) (Enjoy that lens!!)
Superb POV and colors in this image, Sig. Those are most awesome clouds and a beautiful coastline. Excellent shot.
I worked with those ex Navy Deep Freeze C-118's. They were one of the types replaced by the C-9A "Nightingale." Not smooth, but a nice shine when buffed. I have never seen many pictures of the triple canopies and triple cloud decks of Viet Nam.
