A Storm Brewing

Broiling clouds above our house yesterday as a storm rolled in. No filters were applied. The photos cannot do justice to what I saw in person. ...  

Impressive natural Art.

Truly impressive! I understand what you mean when you say it was much more 'involving' in person.... Thanks for posting them here for us to see! Cheers, Filip

I was literally awestruck...

...scrambling around in my underwear while this scene was forming. The camera used, by the way, was an iPhone SE. One day I'll get something proper.

They look like Mammatus clouds.

Very impressive even in pictures. Even more so in person. I saw some here in Eugene OR several weeks ago. ...  

Thank you!

I've got a couple shots of those types of clouds hiding somewhere here. I'll post them if I find them.

Yours are quite dramatic.

When I see weather this dramatic I'm always reminded of Ming the Merciless. ...  

Precisely!

Very Very Nice!

Not an easy capture. Frame them!

I appreciate it!

I was thinking I should look into that - I've never framed anything before - they shouldn't be trapped on a hard drive! On another note, I've been admiring your photographs for some time now. As I replied to Filip, one day I'll get something proper...thou... 

We can imagine the 3D effect that such a storm might have produced in the sky

Thanks for sharing! I feel the US central region always gets interesting weather, sometimes for the worse unfortunately. I have been in the middle of the thunderstorm in midtown Chicago, where lightning was striking between skyscrapers: unforgettable
