Storm

, ,
thick clouds of the islands of gigantes, Estancia Philippines.

storm’s precipice
monsoon strikes the mountain
evanescent

late afternoon rain clouds and a very low tropical tide in Estancia, Philippines.

    Both shots are fantastic but I really like the panorama the best.

      Thanks for stopping by. It turned into a fabulous storm and the sea looked amazing, like chopped gunpowder grey. There was just enough sun to keep the colours of the island too. Mel.

      Thanks! I cropped quite a bit out too so they weren’t too overwhelming to the eye. Appreciate you stepping by the blog. Mel.
