Wow, I love these black and white cloudscapes Paul.
Good shot Paul! Looks like you have been travelling for many miles along the gravel roads in the South Western USA in a search for adventure. Looks really lonely and vast out there. The highlight that day would have been to see that rain storm building up after a long, hot summer’s day in August in dramatic fashion. From Rebecca Hill, Canberra, Australia
