Wonderfully strong image, Heidi – love it!
This is a powerful shot, Heidi. Is it B&W or did this cloud turn day to night. :(
I love a good B&W and this is a Good B&W, well done Heide. I couldn't agree more Susie, this is the Exact reason. Much thanks to all who are CAS members and to both Gavin and Ian for sure. I love it….
What a simply stunning capture of absolute incredible clouds – no wonder we love to gaze at them, super shot, Heidi, makes me run off at the mouth looking for adjectives
Great photo…
Lucky you got out of the lake before you got wet! :)
