Swirling clouds
I shot this last summer as a nasty storm was passing through. I looked up and saw this interesting, twisting cloud. Fortunately, it did not turn into anything worse.

18mm focal length
Exposure 1/8 sec @ f3.5
ISO 800
I decided to have some fun with the flash and manual focus while it was pouring rain. I set the focal length to 28mm. I first focused at infinity and took a shot. Not what I wanted. I then focused close up and took a shot, that didn't do it either. I started focusing towards infinity taking shots ever so often. I got several interesting ones, but I liked this one the best.

Methinks I could get lost in the first one ... amazing! Like the second photo too.
Hugs and blessings,
Nice photos! I especially like the wide range of blues in the clouds.
wow... I learned something from you again... very good experimentation. I hope we don't see many clouds like that this year but this IS Oklahoma....
Brilliant shots Wayne!
That first one is absolutely mesmerizing!
Help me out here. I read a lot of references to focusing on infinity. What, exactly does that mean? Thanks! Love the sky photo.
that storm is awesome! Since living in Northern CA, I haven't seen any good storm clouds. But growing up in Tn and spending lots of time in TX, i miss those crazy clouds. Sweet shot! That second one is pretty cool, too!
