Excellent shots Steve, really are. Im out storm chasing tomorrow just wish it was in America! Those clouds are spectacular! I'm sure Paul has some great photos too. Must have been such a buzz to be there to witness such powerful, menacing looking clouds. Great stuff.

Dont know yet Gav ?? Would not mind going back in June if a Severe Pattern evolves but only 5% on this at the moment, could have posted about 400 pictures to be fair and I am sure Steve & Pete have hundreds of images as well. I know Stewart (Audmun) took nearly 4000 pictures

[AudMun]

Nice shots Essan. I particularly like the first one.

:unsure:

[shuggee]

Will leave this open until after the weekend, for any last minute submissions. Afterall, it takes time to finish the film, take it to the chemist and go and collect the prints....

[Osbourne One-Nil]

Undeterred by yet another defeat, here are 3 for May's competition. I dare say someone else might post some very similar shots in the next few days, but remember who posted them first.

[stevestorms]

Some really nice subject material there and very well taken, Audmun, great stuff from across the pond, ESSAN nice clear shots (baby storm) lol but great colours and super moon bow Osborne one nil again super shots and great subjects, I think as Pete the Brit mensioned everyone bringing out their aces at the last :-) think everyone deserves a pat on the back for some great work
