It looks great! Like a dark shock wave goes through the sky. I also see such cloud, but they were more like a wall and behind the wall there were darkness.. At this time I damned me that there was no camera.
But back to your picture. What I want to say is, that I know how fast this clouds could be and for that the picture is really gorgeous!

Seems to happen very often that there is no camera if it's needed! ^^

Great job capturing the atmosphere of the moment. I really like the darkness (despite your objections!) -- but I wish it wasn't quite so blurry. If this was just a little bit sharper it'd be sharp, if you catch my drift.

ythank you so much.
yes i know. it isn't the sharpest picture. but a few minutes after the shot it rained and rained and didn't stop. if i had more time it had been easier to get better shots. after this it was really dark. and i hadn't a stativ with me.

Yeah, that definitely happens, even to the best of us. Assuming this was shot with a DSLR, maybe you could try cranking up the ISO? The only downside is that you'll get a sort of film grain effect (which is actually kind of nice sometimes). I can't tell if you were already doing that here, though...
Blurriness notwithstanding, this shot makes me seriously homesick for summer thunderstorms. Sigh.

yes you are right.
no i didn't try to cranking up the iso. hmm i shot all this photos in auto modus because of the less time.
xD. summer thunderstorms can be fascinating but scarying in the same time. xD

Ah, I know the feeling. "Man, this looks cool!"

"Wait, is that a funnel cloud?"
