Storm clouds, Upper Church Street

The picture was taken at 6.30pm on 19 June. The heavens opened 2 minutes later, to be followed by a full hour of monsoon-like rain, accompanied by thunder and lightning. I heard the action from indoors - unable to see it or photograph it as I was receiving treatment for my back. It was an amazing soundtrack to the treatment! When I got home, I found that a flower bed had been washed away as a result of the volume of water running through our sloping garden.
