Driving home from South Shropshire last night, I followed a full-on electrical storm and encountered several flash floods. I knew a couple of freight were due to pass, so pulled off the A49 at Condover for a couple of shots.

Storm approaching the east coast of New Zealand's south island... we were watching clouds get thicker and ran up the hill just in time before the heavens opened!
Ventura Beach just south of the pier had a lot of driftwood debris from the series of big storms that has hit California in the early months of 2023.

This is one of numerous images made as the late day light faded and was modified by cloud cover and a distant storm in Valley of Fire, Nevada.
Shot this one down at Wellington Point, looking out over to Stradbroke Island. This storm had some real character. One gentleman who was watching the storm, said he noticed a lot of rotation and thought there was going to be a water spout. Now that would have been cool. !
The first of two weekend textures for your free use...enjoy :-)

We had another storm last night. Not as wild as Thursday's, but enough to get the freaks (like me!) out with their cameras and, inevitably, soaked with rain and sea water. Fall rocks.
Glorious bouquets and storms of applause are the trimmings which every artist naturally enjoys.

Took a ride up to Buttonwood Farms in Griswold, CT this past Saturday evening. This is the third year we have gone up to photograph the sunflower fields they grow for charity. They plant a huge field that is a foreground smack dab in the front of sunset sky. So all that's required for some good images is a sprinkle of good ol Mother Nature's handiwork to complement the pretty foreground with interest in the sky.
Things were not looking promising about 40 minutes prior to this storm passing through. Skies were hazy grey, the sun was not poking through.
But then, a storm built out in the distance and produced this interesting backdrop of rain bands and faint lightning that lasted a good 15-20 minutes. (as most storms are wont to do in CT, they come here to die, and they die fast!).
The sunflowers are up the rest of this week and this coming weekend, so if you have an interest in shooting this be mindful of the weather, clouds are definitely needed for this scene.
