Thanks Harry, main thing was all were well. I will have to get the windows replaced, probably by me. I am a builder so I guess I will work with my insurance company and see what happens. It was some serious weather.
Be well, Stan

Wow Stan, glad you or your family weren't hurt. What a stark contrast between this and your morning shot!
You did capture a stunning cloud though... great detail. Really like the band of blue along the bottom of the frame.
I like this one a lot!!! 7++++++

Stunning shot! It gives me two extremely different feelings. I mean the evil cloud vs the beautiful sky at the bottom.
Warm Regards,

I am glad to hear everyone is well my dear friend. Just this morning I heard that Padres Island, TX is getting hit pretty hard. I am sorry to hear about the damage to your house. This is an amazing image and really shows us how poweful mother nature really is.
Stay safe and good luck with the repairs GG.
Hugs,
Julie.

Too bad about your house, Stan, hope everything is OK now! Good shot of the approach, though. A good "lemonade" shot!

Hi Brigitte, the morning shot was a couple of days earlier. We are picking up glass and drying out some carpet. Bozeman is still having some power outages from the storm. Thanks for the rating and the concern. That blue band was an eye catcher for me as I was shooting this.
Be well, Stan

Thanks Kambiz, the day was blue until this storm came through. The evil cloud was behind me as I turned and saw this one with the light on it. This one was a warning of what was coming.

Thanks for the concern and good wishes. I got a taste of what the severe weather can due. Glad we do not have hurricanes and tornadoes in this area, the hail and wind were enough. Glad you liked the image.

Thanks Dave, just cleanup and an Insurance adjuster to see. The clean up involved a lot of glass in carpet. Some water damage and some roof damage. I am a builder so I can get it back up in a short while.
This cloud was isolated from the Big Bad Storm Front. I turned around from the storm front to spy this one. the sky was in turmoil!

Nicole, thanks! The cloud above the subject cloud was the leading edge of the storm as it hit. The little circle shapes on it indicate to cover your tail. They are a sign of the intensity of it. You would not want to fly a small plane into this! Thanks so much for your interest and kind words1

Hi Collin, this is another one with that 35-70mmEF lens. It has become my go to lens for all around shooting. I am amazed at the difference between it and the kit lens. Still like the 18mm wide angle of the kit lens for some of my shots. I have this one in my good to print file. It was such an intense cloud in context of the sky I saw that day.
Be well, Stan
