Storm Clouds blow over the Church.

Just managed to get out for an hour yesterday to do some shopping and then my usual stop off at the spring for water that I use in my coffee machine.

Looking back the way I had come, the storm clouds were rolling back in over Selsley Church and I had just a little time to take some shots and rush home with my goodies.

Best viewed with the magnify button above the photograph.
