OK lets get this months entries started....Wow, get me... an entry in March, that must be a first lol OK here's a little snap i took up at Tongue in Scotland. Crepuscular rays breaking through the cloud base illuminating the falling precip. Might have a 2nd to add before the time limit expires. Shot came out pretty much monochromatic so finished off in PS to make it B&W throughout & cropped.

OK here's my second entry for this month. Taken along the A838 as a low hanging rain/sleet/snow maker passed in front of me over Loch Eriboll. Loved the regression & tried my best to capture it. Cropped & levels adjusted slightly in PS.
