Skywatch Friday - Drifting storm from rooftop!

I must be really called lucky this Wednesday. Somehow my instinct tempted me to setup timelapse in north-west direction which I usually do not prefer. However, that weird setup finally resulted in beautiful storm formation and its movement. Wow! I never thought and it happened and hence lucky :D. It all started when patch of nimbus cloud swelled to large monolith cloud resulting in storm at the horizon. The event started with slow formation of storm and later drifting towards east. With onset of monsoon in cards, these phenomenon are quite regular. However, the scene of storm formation requires patience and keen observation. I did not predict this storm and all of sudden it happened. This type of precipitation is difficult to predict as well. It is the beauty and divinity of mother nature which nobody can transcend. Since I had no clue on storm, my setup was purely of serendipity (of-course patience was in place!). Also gradual glowing of stratosphere topped up the beauty of storm movement. Here are few shots of epic sky with gestation of storm and its movement. While it rained heavily under the roof of thick nimbus cloud, it rained beauty nearby our place. I have splendid timelapse too, which I will share in upcoming days! Enjoy the short series as of now 8-)
