Gus took these photos on Monday night as we headed down to Rita Ranch to fill the gas tank in my car. Thankfully we brought the camera with us as the views were spectacular along Houghton and Rita Roads. Gus stopped at various points along the way and snapped these photos off to the west towards the I-10 corridor and Sahuarita. The photos are in reverse order because I put his favorite shot up first. I picked the other two from out of the 45 or more shots that he took using the Nikon D80 and the 70 to 300 mm lens.

Wow, excellent job Guso! I love the energy from these skies.
Beautiful images! The first one is my favorite too but they are all beautiful.
Great photos..The first photo is my favorite as well..nice composition!
I love the first one too, particularly since the towers tell the time, five past eleven.
All shots are really striking, aren't you glad you went for the petrol?
Don't go anywhere without that camera. these are sensational.
Wow! Those are some fearsome skies! Very dramatic.
Have fun black lighting with Doug on Sunday :)
Kathie, you mentioned a while back on my blog that you would love a pastie and that you couldn't find any good ones. Well by far the most authentic ones I have found in the US are made by Dobbers, this is the website - http://www.dobberspasties.com/v2/
And the best thing is they ship anywhere! Enjoy :)
Hi Kathie, very dramatic photos, great SWF share. Have a lovely weekend.
Oh my...those are some devilish looking skies! That second shot is amazing. Don't know if I would want to drive through that!
Beautiful. I have power lines in my photos too, but not as beautiful as yours!

Great drama in these shots. The first one just stops you in your tracks.
Beautiful and dramatic photos!
Wow, what drama and intensity. Nice images that Gus caught! It's crazy how tiny that lightning bolt is in the 3rd picture.
That looks very unpleasant Kathie.
What exceptional photos, beautiful and powerful!
It has been a while since I saw rain falling like that. It is a beautiful sight.

I am fascinated by thunderstorms but don't like it when they come close to my home.I'm always afraid of damage.I like the photos.
I like all three of them. Did you every run into that rain?
The colors you get in the sunsets are just stunning.
