This was taken at Fort Myers Beach on the Gulf Coast of Florida. We had just arrived to our vacation house in the late afternoon and I couldn't wait to have a walk on the beach. The walk didn't last long as a storm could be seen brewing to the East. This ominous cloud just hovered over where we were. The rain, thunder and lightening soon followed.
Editors Note From NGYS.....July 13, 2019 // I like Your Shot photographer Iulia Heinle's comment: "Astonishing image, Ann! Love the framing, the presence of the couple walking on the beach, apparently not frightened by the coming storm and the contrast between the menacing cloud and the calmness of the sea! Great work!"
Another one from that lively Sunday two weeks ago where it looks like the cloud is about to knock the Norman church for six! Actually it wasn't stormy, just really interesting cloud formations.
I've been a bit quiet on Flickr and probably will be for a little while yet. From tomorrow I'll be away at a specialised Lyme clinic for a month to have some medical treatment. I must stress it's not critical treatment (like chemo or anything) but just necessary if I'm to get on with my life!
Back home for weekends if I'm good!!
And if I'm up to it, the clinic is very near to one of the best bluebell woods in England, my treatment coinciding with the time they are at their best.
This feels like a good omen. Have a great Sunday x
Yet another stormy day at Three Cliffs Bay, S.Wales. Always feel so lucky this iconic bay is only a 10 minute drive from home.
On a late Sunday afternoon isolated thundery showers developed over the province of Zuid-Holland. They were quite photogenic with nice updraft towers, precipitation shafts and mammatus.
When it became darker I went for lightning photography. There was one great bolt close by with an awesome twilight background. Unfortunately my camera was still in a one second delay mode and guess what.... the bolt happened exactly between the shots..... Aaaaaarghhhhh......
