Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: cumulonimbus

I've attempted this shot in various guises before, but I still like to keep trying. The light of the setting sun on these two panelaks can be really eye-catching when they're backed by storm clouds, as they often are.

I took this shot as a thunderhead (cumulonimbus cloud) was moving in on my hiking party rapidly. I was concerned, but our team leader considered it "quite exciting," telling us the story of when he was hit by lightening. I love the light in this picture, and the colors, particularly the yellowness of the sun behind us shining brightly on the green grass, contrasting with the dark background.
