Going, Going, Going, Going, Gone

About 10AM yesterday, quite a lot of blue sky:

2 minutes later, a bit less blue sky:

2 minutes later again, not much blue sky at all:

In the other direction about 5 minutes later, it’s all gone black (change of direction because I got my lens wet and a whole load of pictures were ruined):

And in the original direction again about 1 minute later, heavy rain just starting: Walk home briskly!

Cheers, Tom.

  Good, I'm glad it's not just us. But it's the height of summer here!

    Yeah, it was in Melbourne at Christmas time too Tom . I don't live there; we live in a smallish city in a semi arid desert area. I hate the flies and the heat, but otherwise I love my little town (now if I could just push it the the coast )

The third picture is incredible. Those clouds look so intense they look more like a matte painting by Albert Whitlock (does that make sense?)

Excuse me if I'm rambling.

Once again you show a real talent with photography.

I just have one of the most well documented thumbs ever.

  Thanks, seascapes and clouds are what I get the most practice at photographing.
  
  I know Whitlock from his work with Hitchcock.
  
  Cheers, Tom.

Now that can be described as a rapidly changing landscape

  It really is amazing how fast it changes when the wind is strong, isn't it?

  Thanks. When it's like this, we really do need coat, rain-hat, sun-hat and sunglasses with us all the time!

You're at the west coast of Scotland, aren't you? I've only been there twice (for too short a time) but was amazed at how quickly the weather changes from sunshine to rain and back to sunshine

You've captured the different moods very well!

  I'm on the West coast of Wales, not Scotland. But your comments about the speed of weather change are spot on. It's astonishing how quickly it changes, sometimes.
