This was just about the only bad weather we experienced on our 3 week trip ... until the drive on our last day through Utah to the airport in Salt Lake City, when a tornado producing storm developed and we felt it was wise to leave the highway for shelter..

Another I under rated at first - I must have had "issues" that day or something. :) Great capture - love the rich earth tones against the darkening sky. I like it. 7 to 8.
