Montana Storms in Monochrome

Madison Valley hailstorm

We arrived safe and sound in Montana after two days on the road with a car full of dogs and two giggling girls. I love road trips, but after 1500 miles I was ready to put my feet on solid ground or up on a cozy couch. Within days of arriving at the cabin, we had an amazing storm roll in. I had forgotten how spectacular thunderstorms are in the mountains.  There’s something about watching a large storm develop from miles away as two fronts collide working themselves over the mountains… it’s simply stunning.

The clouds were dark and heavy with hail as we later found out. It seemed fitting to process the images in black and white given the setting was so ominous.
