Dark and Stormy Skies

Is there anything better than the moodiness of a darkening sky before the rain? It’s one of my absolute favourite times, when the skies shift from calm to angry, shutting out the sun as if they’ll never let it shine again.

I get drawn to these skies, lured in by their wild changing moods as I wait to see what they’ll do next. It’s so exciting!

I took this shot two days ago at six-thirty am when normally it would be a bright start to the day. It looks as though it should be dusk and we had eighteen millimeters of rain from these volatile clouds. So very needed!
