About a mile from my house, at a bend in Oughtibridge Lane known locally as Jawbone Hill and overlooking part of the Don valley, lies the ancient Birley Stone. I drove up there with the camera in the late afternoon, and just before the sun dropped below the hills I caught this storm traveling up the valley floor. One of my favourite pictures of the series so far. I think it fully encapsulates the landscape photographer's old maxim: f8 and be there.
