A beautiful day worth picturizing

I noticed it on my phone when I took this picture that it looks all blue, not at all like the real-lifeness. I wanted to capture it because it was a stark contrast between the dark grey sky and the small clumps of meandering white clouds. It was really an awesome sight to see, especially considering the view 90 degrees either way.

Now, this one is a bit more accurate. The gray sky mass can be more easily seen devouring the bright blue sky with the fluffy white clouds.
180 degrees the other way, the gray mass is moving over the bright blue and white. Once again, another example of how a picture just cannot capture the awesome spectacle that is right out there if we're paying attention.
Again, this looks bluer than the dark gray it was. The contrast was frickin awesome. I also captured a small piece of lightning that preceded a nice, long one that stretched across the sky. This storm today was really amazing. It was the slowest moving I had ever seen. The combined time we spent at Pepe's and at Madelyn's next door was around an hour. The whole time, this storm was making noise and giving us quite the show, but still nothing more than a few drops.
