Storm on the Horizon

Uploaded: November 14, 2011

Description

You never know if a prairie storm will bring wind, rain, hail or pure havoc.
I love to watch it approaching and to see the way the light and shadows change the landscape.
This was an unusual fall storm that brought rain.

I know exactly what you mean about the approach of prairie storms, Heather. There's such a feeling of hush and impending weather chaos, and the light such conditions bring is simply extraordinary. You've captured that whole feeling here so well. #9820841

How can clouds be gorgeous and threatening at the same time? You captured that so well here, Heather. Love the contrast of the rich blue sky with the golden landscape, and the tree's position really "makes" the composition. Terrific work! #9825890
