The beach was deserted before the rains came - comments welcome

Great cloud / sky interaction here Chris. The blowing sand works well too. The bush (frame right) is a distraction as a black blob can be sometimes and I'm curious, whaaat is the Tardis like box on the sand? Is this exposure in a similar state of illumination as you saw it - seems dark and foreboding to me! Is it really the/a beach?

Yes Matty B exactly as I saw it about five minutes after the shot I rained like hell. The Tardis looking building was just a beach hut for which purpose I have no idea.

Those clouds make me feel as though I'm underwater looking up at the waves on the surface...

I think it works really well, the beach and the blue sky.

I wonder how it would have looked with a 10.5mm as that sky is very interesting :)
