Approaching Storm

On my way to my pilot's license, I was on my second cross country flight. We had to fly from Marathon to Naples and then back.

We had just left Naples and some time into the flight there was a storm in front of our path (or a cumulonimbus cloud, which has been ingrained into my head after relentlessly studying aviation weather). I'd hate to admit it, but I didn't even notice the thing. I was so thrilled with the view of the everglades. So my instructor starting hinting, asking if there was something that I should be doing. I was thinking to myself, what in the world is she trying to make me realize? And then I got a good look ahead and saw this thing (I'm such an idiot!)

So we altered our course to the right and continued on our flight. When passing by it closer my instructor slowed down the plane and let me open the window so I could snap this beautiful picture. A wonderful ending to a wonderful flight!
