Just a nasty way to start the day.

A view from my office window at home . . . a very fast moving storm with clouds boiling all around . . .


(Love watching this kind of weather)

Just for an interesting fact, those are actually called mammatus clouds, and they're actually quite rare to see, let alone photograph (well in terms of clouds anyways, I bet everyone has seen these before). It's awesome that you were able to get a photo of them though, although they're generally concurrent with bad weather, they don't cause it. Just the way the air travels though them.
That's a great photo... jct101, those clouds might be rare to see in 'Frisco, but we see them pretty regularly here in the Midwest Just regular spring/summer/fall weather around these parts!

Nice capture - I think the slight underexposure helps capture the dynamics of the clouds - well done. And I assume you headed for the basement right after taking the photo !!

Awesome clouds, maybe the slight underexposure adds to the threatening mood of the shot.
Thought I may have seen it entered in the current Project 52 comp "Clouds".
