Nice shot ,very pastoral, I like clouds. The great weather engine has fired ,,,We have had huge anvils like that in Calgary for a week now,and the odd funnel cloud reported.

There is a fine line between "hobby" and "obsession"

Your cloud is slightly blown out. Maybe correct the exposure in PS or RAW shooter (if you shoot in RAW of course!)

And it's sometimes a good idea to use a ND grad on clouds in landscape shots, just to bring them out a bit.

Good image though, I love storm clouds.

Like that Jim, looks like it could have been a very dramatic storm eventually?

Think you're right there Scott, better get my tin hat out just in case......:D

What an amazing capture! Only in the great praries can you get an entire cloud that size in one frame. :) Nice job!
