Hi All

This is a picture of the outskits of Tropical Depression #1, which later became Alberto. He made landfall north of here yesterday and I gues he is now raining on you folks in the Carolinas. The sun is shining here again, finally.

The picture was made on Sanibel Island at the lighthouse beach, looking west, just after sunrise saturday morning.

Canon 10D, 17-40mm at 17mm
f22, 1 sec, ISO 100
polarizer & 0.9 Hard-edge GND

Buck,

This is really cool! I am a sucker for dramatic weather images and this is certainly a good one! Thanks for sharing

Dramatic clouds is right, cool image! But don't remind me about hurricane season. :mad:

Hey Buck,

How is it going? Great I hope. Nice dramatic shot of Berto. We should get together agian, I have been going to Naples/Marco a lot lately. I think FNP and SENP was a good merger, even if it was a take over. LOL

Buck, a fantastic shot! We did get a record amount of rain here in our area in North Carolina. We had around 7 inches in about 8 to 10 hours. The interesting thing is that 20 miles either side of us got only an inch or two.

We got some of the storm up here in NC, much needed rain!. I really like the soft lighting in this image, great cloud formation!.
