My longest storm chase to date to Co. Fermanagh and back where I covered 150 miles and 9 hours on the road, this image was taken between Kesh and Omagh on May 28th 2013 when chasing back N after catching a big funnel cloud, I encountered the most menacing storm clouds of the day coming towards me straight down this road. The clouds were extremely dark and threatening then the sun broke out behind me turning the fields into a stunning lush green which made for a great scene, this image doesn't even come close to capturing how rich the colours were. This was 10mm ultra wide angle and a 107 degree field of view. Check out the dark base to the R of centre where the clear sky can be seen, that region of the base had definite rotation, I watched it for a while as black scud rose in fragments and rotated together in unison, they didn't put anything down but it was exciting to watch, read the report for more information. * All images are available for sale in the form of photo prints, canvas or digital files for licensing, if you are interested in a purchase simply drop me an email.
