Storm Clouds
It’s the height of soccer season so I’ve been shooting mainly soccer pictures. This was an interesting storm cloud that came over toward the end of the game last weekend.

I like the colors, like most I am sure it was most impressive in person. Hope your team won.

Very surreal and dramatic. There's a bit of noise, but the colors are great. I think I'd be running for shelter pretty darn quick after I captured an image like this! Cool capture.

Nice catch, Phil. These clouds look angry enough to produce plenty of rain, hail and wind. Last night, before a thunderstorm started in earnest, I was able to get a few similar images, although not with these colors.

This was a lucky catch just around sunset. The sky on the left was black and the sky on the right was a light orange. These clouds were churning in the middle.

PS

The soccer team won the tournament in their age bracket.

Beautiful colors, Phil. Looks like something wicked is brewing.

I like this, Phil. Depending on one's mindset when viewing the image, it's not at all clear that these are clouds. An effective abstract.
