I certainly go along with Linda’s comment. A truly dramatic shot, electrifying (pun definitely intended!).
This could be likened to a spine chilling scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s film, Psycho.

Interesting contrast in the sky! It is interesting how the sky is divided up into the 2 different areas, as the mid-level cloud weather front of dark Altocumulus, which can’t be penetrated by the sun and its silver lining moves through in one half of the sky and the other half in the distance is bright blue and fine! the hilly farm landscape at the base of the photo is lush green and fertile!
