SKYWATCH FRIDAY (Storm clouds over Chicago)
I discovered the skywatch site too late last week to participate so I made a mental note to do it this week but I woke up this morning to absolutely clear blue sky, not even a little white fluffy cloud to be seen. Not that I am complaining you understand, just wasn't sure with my limited photographic ability whether I would manage to compose a worthwhile shot. But then...........
I looked outside about half an hour ago and BINGO! Huge big grey clouds were rolling in and it was getting darker and darker.
So maybe I will get wet on my way home from work but at least I got to post for skywatch!

Nice shots! If someone were to think that trees are made to support the sky, they would all seem too short.... mine's up too hope you can drop by....
A storm can either be good or bad, but these pictures are just awesome!
