A Stormy Flight

Top picture: A Stormy Flight.

Bottom picture: Stormy Skies.

These two photos have quite a story to tell! I took them in June last year. The bottom one (Stormy Skies) was taken just a couple of hours before a huge thunderstorm hit us here in the North East of England, causing widespread flash flooding (just ask the poor people whose gardens were flooded!).

I took the first one (A Stormy Flight) at the same time. There were no birds in the original photo, though. I added the seagull as an afterthought, using some "bird" paintbrushes that I'd created in Photoshop.
