Denver’s not a piddling place. But stack it alongside a colossal cloud that materialized last weekend, and it looks like an itsy-bitsy base camp below an Everest of roiling smoke.

The Atlantic Cities published an interview July 24 with Greg Thow, the 49-year-old camera samurai behind Denver Digital Photography.

“I’ve never seen that type of cloud before, to be honest, and my view has been solid here for several years,” says Thow. And he’s not likely to see one like it again: Even in the much-plumbed realm of cloud photography, this one stands out as a rare stunner. Expect to see it on many weatherheads’ lists for Best Photo of 2013.
