The sky was angry today, so I didnt get to shoot anything as beautiful and colorful as all of yours.

DeeDee you just need to use the image button on the full screen reply, fourth from the left. Just copy the image address you had in the box that opens, its that easy. Use the edit button and you can see what using that button does, it enters the img tags before and after your image.

Thanks Dan - Thats was the first time using flickr.

Great shots again this month. Geez, DeeDee, you should be running for cover. Here's my try. It actually might be cheating. This is two photos over Little Dtroit Lake stitched together with the panarama feature of my software. My Fuji S700 couldn't get wide enough to capture the thunderclouds between the horizon and the main cloud on the left side and still get the neat color variations of the clouds on the right side. So, I took two and merged them together to create a wide shot. The software worked very well. I had to clean up a couple of areas but not too much work. C&C welcome.

[DeeDee]

Cool shot Cicada - As far as running for cover, I took about 10+ shots and I dont think I spent more then 30 seconds out there.

[Dbl]

Great shot Cicada! Not cheating at all, the panorama is perfect for this situation. Nice job on the stiching as well.

[Dbl]

DeeDee hope the image thing made sense, and that is an ominous looking shot!

[Dark Cloud]

This photo was taken near Grand Rapids last week. A line of severe storms passed to the west of us that evening. Once the sun hit the horizon, the sky had the glow of a nuclear bomb detonation (not that I have actually witnessed one)

Photo taken with Canon 30D, Canon 100-400L, ISO 800, 115mm focal length, 1/250 @ f/5.6

[DonBo]

Here's my shot for June - tried to get a perfect relfection in the water - this was as close as I got. Good stuff this month the variety and colors of the sky and clouds are indeed endless.

[mmeyer]

These are great shots. Everyone has been busy this month.

[Royce Aardahl]

I've been waiting for a face profile and finally! I was taking some rainbow pics and saw this guy up in the clouds. 1st is the crop.

[Royce Aardahl]

WCS, That shot is AWESOME!!

[mmeyer]

Well, it's down to the wire but I finally found some clouds that were interesting. I was in the Black Hills for a week and it sure seemed like there were a lot neater clouds out there. This is a shot of the Corn Palace in Mitchell. There was quite a storm rolling in while I was waiting for the stinking tour bus to move.

[Iambjm]

Fantastic shot of the corn palace!!
