When I was little, I thought that when it was raining it was raining everywhere, at least for miles around. And maybe that is how it rains in Los Angeles, where I grew up, and where it seems like it never rains and then it pours? But now that I pay attention to the weather here in Chicago, I see that it often only rains in tiny little spots that move by quickly. I love when you can see that it is raining in one place and not raining right next to it. Here, you can see three distinct patches of rain moving by, with sun in the foreground.
This is the same dark thunderstorm as my panorama shot (www.flickr.com/photos/64723635@N05/15010659675/), but the dark clouds went closer and closer... Luckily I was close to my car =)
During the last days we had a lot of thunderstorms, but too few rain. This image was made at the ferry crossing the Danube near Mariaposching,
Finally an end to our incessant rain ! We managed a few peaks of sunshine as the storms finally moved out. This is a quick IR shot without a tripod because I was parked illegally. It's the only spot on which one can look across Burke Lake to the south.
Best viewed LARGE,
Taken along the Blue Ridge Parkway near Asheville, North Carolina. Where we were standing it was not raining, nor did we see any lightning, but the thunder was rolling across the mountains.
Aufregende Wetterbedingungen laden zum verweilen ein. Setz Dich und genieße das aufziehende Gewitter (Aber bringe Dich rechtzeitig in Sicherheit 😉)
Nerd talk for thunderstorm, and a substantial one here, producing golf-ball sized hail and presumably lots of lightning. These clouds are deceptively dynamic, building and moving at rates that can be picked up by shutter speeds of 1/30 of a second, and make for fun time-lapse videos.
A thunderstorm with shelf cloud and upward lightning approached from the south.
The sun was in the west and shining beautifully on this storm.
It started raining and blowing while the sun was still shining and the lightning was getting dangerously close.
I had to crouch down and hold the tripod. The effort was finally rewarded with this photo.
There was a big, countywide thunderstorm on the weather radar heading for Wichita so I went out the park to shoot the storm as it arrived. I had bad luck and the storm dwindled and the remnants passed to the west of me. But I did get this kind of unusual shot of the storm clouds and sunset.
a typical landscape scene of red orange earth, long grass and scattered Kameeldoring bome (Camel thorn trees) while the storm clouds gather at Mokala national park and a lone Red Hartebeest walks past...
Wanted to visit the bird sanctuary in Tipperne in Denmark today. Instead of birds I was able to watch an impressive thunderstorm coming up.
