And for something pink, my Peony. This was taken before it rained and knocked all the flowers down toward the ground.

I had to cut my walk short today because of this. I was about a mile out on the trail, and I could hear the tornado sirens going off in the nearby town. The sky was getting dark and the wind was picking up, so I turned around and ran the mile or so back to my truck. Luckily I made it back before the storm hit.

You should! It's not too difficult. I just aimed and opened the shutter where the most activity was happening. I also had a lot of 'misses', but that's the beauty of digital. Just be careful because it CAN hit you from miles away.

These photos of landscape with storm clouds are indeed awesome. I am glad you remained safe, also, Jayflower .

Goodness! I've missed some lovely shots.
Those storm shots are impressive. Reminds me of my college years, when I'd either stay at home and watch a storm move across the bay, winds whipping up the waves; or park up on the edge of the valley and watch the lightening dance. Good times.
