I'm always one to admire a storm photo, and this one is brilliant. It really is amazing, and you did a fantastic job representing it.

I agree this is a great shot of this storm about to form but the shell gas station and shrubs take away from the shot. Otherwise its great.

The sky is unreal, but the Shell station seriously takes away from the impact of the shot.

great capture. Has a 3d effect to it. I just dont like those clouds although they make great pictures. I want to run away as far as possible.
