Picture of the day (August 11, 2010)

Today’s sunset was accompanied by dark thunderclouds and heavy rain. Sitting on the bus on my way home from work, the landscape stretching out in front of us carried a special mood you only feel during summer storms at late afternoon or early evening. I wanted to capture this mood, and when I saw the hay bales and trees approaching, I knew this was the perfect setting. I hope this picture transports a bit of that mood which I felt at the time of shooting it.
