Hello everyone!

There were blue skies and weather pushing 90 degrees on my way home from work on Friday night so I retreated to the basement of my non-air conditioned home to find some respite from the heat. After 30 minutes of loafing on my couch, I heard the rumble of thunder outside and was amazed to see black clouds rolling over the horizon.

Never one to miss an opportunity for a photograph, I hopped in my truck and headed to the Lake Superior Shoreline. Much to my dismay, it was already raining at my normal spot so I hopped on Highway 61 to get ahead of the storm. I ended up at Stoney Point before it was dry enough to get my camera gear out - minutes after the shutter snapped, it was an absolute downpour.

Here's what I got - let me know what you think!

Nice shots. It looks like it was getting dark and gloomy very fast.
