Description

An abandoned farmhouse and barns awaits the wind and rain from an oncoming cold front in Milam County, Texas. The two wooden structures had collapsed to the ground the next time I drove by them less than a year later. The heavy downpours and the low angle of the sun created dramatically lighted curtains of rain. This photo is one of a series I captured of one of the most beautiful thunderstorms I have ever witnessed, as I drove home through Milam County a few years ago. I am posting the best of my captures together.

Gary Holmes, photographer: I have always loved to photograph nature, landscapes, abstract, and other found objects of interest. Although I have staged single and group portraits and still life photographs, I prefer the challenge of trying to capture the unpredictable spontaneity of things and events as they are occurring. I started with a Kodak Brownie as a child, but entered the world of real photography with a Canon AE-1 in the late 1970's. I have successfully sold a number of my photographs on Fine Art America, and have won several awards, including an Editors' Choice on 500px, as well as a 5-star Editor's Choice designation in Camerapixo's Hot Shots photo magazine, Volume 4.

Love the sky. The caption is a nice reminder for us to shoot and savor the things we see all the time because who knows what it will be the next time we see.
