How I Got This Shot: The scene was constantly changing with the storm clouds moving through. I waited for an opening view to the trees below and the right balance of cloud cover to emphasize the storm. As I do with most images I used a tripod to compose this scene and to avoid camera shake with the slow shutter speed.
