Storm approaching

Photo Information

Taken in the Maldives. The storm made a close pass to the island without actually passing over us. The contrast between the dark, foreboding background sky and the bright sunlit foreground made me reach for my K5.

I am not surprised this made you reach for the camera! Wonderful contrast both in terms of lighting and colour.

Great image, love the tricolour effect. Must be a strong contender for POTW.

Good thing you HAD your camera; this is a remarkable shot

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
