Hello Urs,
Dramatic capture of the fury in the eye of the storm.
Great Colours. Quality POV. Nice work.
You must have nearly been able to touch the black turmoil just above your head.
Cheers from Australia,
Graham.

Hallo Urs!
Ich hoffe, Du bist nicht nass geworden. Ein eindrucksvolles Foto zeigst Du uns hier, das eine wirklich bedrohliche Situation vermittelt. Die "Windmuster" auf dem Wasser sind unglaublich. Ein nichtalltägliches und sehr sehenswertes Bild!
Grüße aus dem sommerlichen Westfalen!
Frank

Hallo Urs,

Lake Geneva as never seen before....at least not by me. That storm most be terrifying, hope you kept it dry. Those overhanging dark clouds are taken over the place, while the far background still has some brightness inside...what a great view.

Take care,

Henk
