summer storms

In all the heat we've been enduring it is magical to have thunder clouds roll in. They are always  illuminated from deep within and move swiftly from here to there.


Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time. John Lubbock

I am linking these to Skywatch Friday where you'll see many more marvelous skies

These are beautiful (and I hope they brought you some rain!) Thunderclouds are so electrifying (no pun intended!) when illuminated like that! The third photo is the most dramatic and is my favorite. And the quote is great, it's long been a favorite of mine. It's so true!
