A bold and powerful image, Lisa! I like the B&W very much. This is what wide angle shooting is all about!

Thank you all for your kind remarks!

David, this was captured with Sigma's 10-20mm, using a Kaessemann polarizing filter.

Blessings, Lisa♥ #8783797

Wow! Is this for real, Lisa?! I've never seen a cloud like this! Awesome capture both in colour and in B&W! Fabulous work! :) #8851924

Lisa J. Boulden level-classic August 20, 2010

Yes, Lorna.
For real.
I'd never seen a cloud like this before, either. I probably should have been more scared and cautious, but with my camera in hand...

Lorna Shutter August 20, 2010

I would have been scared out of my wits ... camera or no camera! Ha! Ha! :)
