Thuderstorms and Sunflowers



Severe thunderstorms captured over a field of Sunflowers in Colorado...an amazing scene I was able to witness, needless to say I am thankful I was able to be in the right place at the right time to capture Mother Nature's drama.

I hope you all like it
---John

Normally, one sees bright sunshine as a backdrop to a field of sunflowers. I love the texture added by the turbluent clouds. Leaves me with the impression of a Vincent Van Gough ala nature and your camera! Great shot!

Look at that ~ the sunflowers are already up! Gorgeous contrast of light and dark and the depth of the clouds really adds to the liveliness of the shot. Beautiful, as usual!
