Downpour
We took a more-or-less aimless drive the other day, eventually ending up on a road just because the map indicated a cemetery along the way. As a bonus, that route pointed us right toward some afternoon storms that were building up. And then, as a double-bonus, just when we got to the cemetery one of the clouds, off in the distance, decided it was time to rain.

Yes – I was very lucky – that downpour didn’t last very long.

Dramatic cloud textures and tonality! I love having the time to explore, and the anticipation of finding a hidden gem.

Driving around is just about my favorite thing to do…after photographing the stuff I find while I am driving around.

Thanks. I could hear thunder, which was cool – I like the sound of thunder.

I used to go out in storms when I was young….

I love storms! Although I will admit that we had one earlier this summer that was frightening. I mean, I stood outside and watched and photographed it for a while, but I was wary enough of it that I did seek shelter.
And then: the storm fell apart and nothing happened!
