For SkyWatch Friday

This is for SkyWatch Friday  for the end of July...   a nice dark stormy sky.

30mm Prime lens, Aperture Priority Mode,  f/4, 1/750sec, ISO 100

I use a fast shutter speed because everything I take is hand held and the wind was blowing pretty hard that day.  Earlier, I had been taking close up photos of wild flowers around the farm and while getting ready for supper, I saw the clouds form for a storm... I ran out to snap off a few.  No Post Processing, just the jpg strait out of camera.  I might lighten it a bit, but just a touch.

Or maybe not, I like it dark. It conveys the atmosphere at that moment.
