#519- Stormy Square Butte
Hi everyone-
Thanks to all of you who emailed or commented on Facebook about my Dad. He is doing well. The hip replacement surgery went smoothly and the doctor said everything looked great. He rested fairly comforably throughout the afternoon and evening.
Today he started therapy and will continue learning to walk with the new hip today and tomorrow. He should go home on Saturday and then will continue therapy for several weeks a few days a week.
He was in good spirits and seemed to be doing quite well. Thanks again to everyone that asked about him, he was glad to hear from all of you.
Today's image was shot from a bluff south east of Fairfield, Montana called the Fairfield Bench. This was the first day of Bryan Allen's trip to Montana. He had come from some really warm weather to the low 70's and no humidity. Once we started driving toward Choteau we noticed these storms moving out of the mountains and across the prairie lands.
I figured this would be a good spot to shoot from so we headed in that direction. Well the temperature dropped to the low 60's and the wind was around 30mph gusts. It was quite a change....I said well Bryan, welcome to Montana!
There was cool images to be shot in any direction. This one was looking to the south at Square Butte, a local landmark that looked a bit ominous in the storm. I hope you enjoy...

Great shot Brian!
Glad to see you used the word "drama" in your label. I'm not sure a sky shot could be any more dramatic than this one! Great post-processing as usual!
Cheers!

Holy Moly!!S
As I look at that picture, I hear a camped Indian tribe singing on the plain, some sort of welcoming rainchant with a steady drum-beat, a melodic repetition of some refrain I cannot quite catch ...with just male voices.
A most inspiring shot.
This image really took my breath away... fantastic!
Stunning image!
Hard to take my eyes from it...
This is a very dramatic image.
