Description Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous - in the low 70's, windy, sunny, just beautiful. But then that evening, the clouds started to roll in...it ended up raining and hailing for a while. I collected some of the hail and stuck it in a bag in the freezer, because I'm like that. But I took this picture literally about a minute before it started raining. So cool. Wish it wasn't so blurry, though...

My second entry for the 100 Art Themes Challenge.

I cant say anything when it comes to photos, or 3d, or *continues for a few minutes*

Anyway when I went to sydney many years ago I went on a plane... the sight was blocked by thick clouds... then, when I arrived, it was pouring down

Haha! Yeah, I'm not really a photography expert either, but thanks for the comment anyway. XD

That's gotta suck...I was on a plane this summer coming back from vacation, and we were above the clouds at sunset. It was SO gorgeous, just unbelievable. Wish I'd had my camera with me then.

But it could be worth a shot to take a blurry pic of the sky before it gets confiscated lol.

Thank you so much! Yes, the storm was amazing. The best part is, I have a screened-in porch on the back of my house, and I got to sit out there and watch the rain and hail. A wee bit chilly though, but nothing too bad.

Haha. No, it's not the camera, I just need a steadier arm. You couldn't see the blurriness on the little screen on the camera, so I didn't retake it.

Happy St. Patty's Day, though!

Haha...that reminds me of a play the high school did. The main character is Italian, and the actor who played him did this crappy attempt at an accent. Basically, he just said everything with an American accent, then put "uh" at the end of everything. It was fun just to laugh at him.

"Uh" yeah that would be funny to laugh at. I like Italian food, it's so good...

I like my boring, mild, boiled Irish food. We had corned beef and cabbage last night...man, I swear I could live off of that stuff. ^^ But I'll try anything, just so long as it's not spicy, it's not seafood, and it doesn't look like it might as well still be alive.

Ugh, I know. SOmetimes when I get food at the school cafeteria I wonder if they have fully thawed it before they cooked it because most of the food there is rougey. Yuck.
