Took this down at Whitehead this morning - looking out over the Copeland Islands - decided it looked much better in high contrast monochrome!



Enjoy!

Excellent Paul. That looks fantastic in mono!. Those are towering cumulus, they can produce funnels. Keep an eye out this afternoon. CAPE values of nearly 600j/kg are progged for 16.00 BST. Might get some cool convection.

Thanks guys! Declan, it's not HDR but it's from a 12-bit RAW so it has rather more than the average .jpg in it to start with.
