At the brown, beige, and fibrous debris of the storm. Two conversely statured shadows walkbeside one another. We look up at the taller stature, a man in his thirties.

It already is filled with imagery. You write really well. I think you can make it more visual, though, by adding one sentence BEFORE the first sentence of this, a short sentence that includes something about the setting, so that when the luminous moment is passing by in the second sentence the reader knows what is going on.This is good stuff!
