Description
I was on my way home from work and had to stop to get some shots after a freak twenty minute thunderstorm. I was waiting for this section of the clouds to reach the sun, but they started moving really fast and it was a little difficult to catch this I had enough time to get three shots and this was the one that I liked most.Thank you very much for looking.
Please share your thoughts and/or critique; it will be greatly appreciated.

This is an awesome shot. The colors are very uncommon and if they are a reflection of
the storm, that must indeed have been a terrible and frightening one !

I saw this like a few days ago and thought "I really should favorite this." But then I forgot. My brain plays tricks on me like that.

It was indescribable... I've uploaded a few pictures to dA, but there are still so many things I saw that I didn't get the chance to get pictures of. When I have a lot of money on my own, I'll probably visit again.

Actually, my dad is taking me on a business trip with him to Kyoto in a couple years. I will have been to ALMOST every continent then.

that'd be amazing…though i can't see to many people being thrilled with some crazy 19 year old punk teaching them about his style of photography…but it would be a pretty sweet gig ^^

It looks like a thunder storm is about to come out from there.
It's almost my first time seeing something like this.

I understand I checked mine yesterday and now I'm back up to 85. Can get a little burdensome to check everything that needs checking on DA and then when you have other accounts on other sites, well you get it. Anyway, hope you have a great 4th and take good care.

It looks like the sun is burning away and producing clouds of smoke. Way cool, dude. The colour is really interesting. Did you have to touch it up at all or is that a pure shot (I'm guessing the latter; you tend to leave things pretty natural )?

tjparson In reply to GraphicFoundry [2008-06-24 15:09:44 +0000 UTC]
thats pretty much exactly what i was going for.
i did a little level adjusting…in the scheme of things what i call a touch-up really isn't doing much of anything compared to what people are doing these days…but yeah its been left fairly natural
