TS Arlene Outer Band WC #248

Hi All,

This is an image of the first outer band of Tropical Storm Arlene as it reached the coast at Pass-a-Grille Florida. The storm missed us by almost 100 miles but you can clearly see that even that far away, tropical storms still pack a punch.

D70 - 18~70DX @ 18mm 1/125s @ F 6.3

Best,

Jose

Thanks Andy, The color version is basicaly the same except for a green/blue tint that is normal in these storm images, therefore the B&W :).

Thanks again,

Jose

Now that's an impressive storm Jose! Good choice to do B&W. There are a few spots that went totally black in your middle bank of clouds and on your shoreline and I wouldn't mind seeing more contrast in the water but other than that it's pretty impressive :)
