freak storm

I took this in North Adelaide looking towards the city. On the left (east) they were having a massive electrical storm with hail coming down like snow and on the right (west) there was bright sunshine. All within a few kilometres

Beautiful shot, Chris. You can feel the power in those clouds

[Babs]

Super shot. We had storms here today, but most of it missed us. Apparently the Central Coast and Newcastle were bombarded with hail stones.

Love the composition and the contrast in the weather!! Once we had it pouring rain in the back of our house, in our back yard and not a drop on the front side of the house in the front yard!! Like someone pulled a curtain!!! This is beautiful and love the shapes of the clouds and the sunshine and the beautiful garden!! FAV!

The other day my son phoned me up while I was in Sliema to check whether we were safe as a very heavy rainfall was taking place. I live barely 100 metres from where he does and on my return home I saw that everywhere was dry. Love this shot - very atmospheric.

[Leana Niemand]

Yes, that looks like a good ol' storm comming in.

wow! thanks for putting this on the PP. When I first took this pic I was disappointed and then surprised when looked at it on my computer. I was driving home across the city from a session with my lovely Chinese accupuncturist. Being in a different part of town I was on the lookout for new things to photograph and as I saw these magnificent clouds I knew I had found my pic for the day. It seems the weather is becoming more extreme all over the world.
