Description
We had Lightening, thunder, down pours while the temps hovered around 95 F. We even had a lightening bolt strike a crane and a man, who is lucky enough to have survived to tell the tale! Then we had this :) I didn't even come close to capturing the beauty of yesterday afternoon.
My previous upload, "Slide into the 70's". Thanks for stopping by :)
Have a wonderful day!
Hugs,

Wonderful shot! reflections are fantastic! :)
great foto.
when I first heard about "concrete rivers in LA,I had trouble imagining because it sounded very strange.then when I went to California before starting college, my imagination was fulfilled and they were still strange.your sky is not strange however.it is beautiful
Stellar lighting and patterns in this wild sky capture, Melinda, and guess what....I can tell this was postworked for contrast effects. I also got fotos of this same weird monsoonal phenomenon that I'm presently in the process of postworking. I'm thinking of doing a collage with all kinds of variations. BTW, we also got lightning and thunder here, but just a sprinkle. And I'm getting fed up with the humidity.
The clouds and reflection is awesome. Very crisp image
Remarkable work!
Fantastic image and mood!
This is amazing! When I first saw the thumbnail, it reminded me of the 1970s tv miniseries of The Martian Chronicles...the one where the Martians were all bald, earless people wearing gold contact lenses and flowing white fabric that looked suspiciously Greek in origin; molded latex masks were new at the time, so "earless" people must have been...well...quite alien, especially since they looked so darn elegant! Bernadette Peters and Rock Hudson were in it, along with Bernie Casey, I think. Anyway, it wasn't the best miniseries around, but it had some fantastic elements, including Martian architecture including canals. This shot reminds me of that. It's haunting and quite vivid. I love the clouds and the reflections. They dance with the shadows nicely and the contrast is quite stunning. I really like this shot quite a bit. In thinking of the The Martian Chronicles and in looking at this shot, it actually makes me think of a Ray Bradbury title for one of those Chronicles (though it might have been in The Illustrated Man:) Tall, They were, and Golden Eyed...this image evokes that and if you happened to photograph really tall, bald people in quasi-togas, it would fit so perfectly in this already great shot. It's a favorite too!
