Thunderhead Looming Overhead

Did you ever see one of those moments where the sun is out but a huge dark cloud is rolling in? In Florida, this happens a lot.
Capturing these almost-black clouds in a photo is a little more difficult though, because we don’t normally get those really dark clouds like you see in the plains states. Ours are generally gray and poofy, with a poorly defined edge, but still loaded with rain.
This one came in and brought a strong wind with it, followed by a deluge, which was good because we had way too much pollen in the air. And pollen is no fun. Unless you’re a bee.

That’s not a cloud. That’s an Asgard mothership!

So dramatic! Love it.
Your description helped a bit, I have to admit (makes it that much more special).

Thanks, I try to write something that will emphasize the meaning. Glad you enjoyed it.

Yes, but if you read the first entry in Google, you saw what the ship looked like, and not what it looked like in its first appearance in the show. The first time they showed one descending from the sky, it was obscured by surrounding dark clouds, like in your photo. If you ever catch that episode in reruns, you’ll better understand my reference.

Now I see. The display at work is much darker than home, so the detail was lost. I need to fix that, but it’s a crappy LCD display - the color gets washed out the brighter you go.
I’m glad the Asgard are the good guys.

Wow! That is really atmospheric. Literally.
We had a day like that yesterday, sun shining but big dark grey clouds but it didn’t rain, they just passed over and the sun kept shining - weird. Needless to say it is pouring with rain now and the wind is gale force because hey! it’s the weekend!
