    We once had a huge hail storm, not like Sydney gets,
    their hail stones can be as big as golf balls when they get them,
    but we had one that made it look like it had snowed, it was so pretty :D

    What a sight for town folks to see, the kids would have had a great time playing in it and getting soaked.

    Guess the truck driver wasn't impressed though.

    Nice work Awais, thanks for sharing thumb.gif ..... Skippy :D

    Awais,

    Heh! I have seen hail 4" round. Take more then a umbrella to protect you. It is actually really, really scary seeing something that size and rock hard falling from the sky. Then again South Texas has strange weather and HUGE Thunderstorms like not place on earth I have been.

    I have been through Thunderstorms that have thunder so strong it actually can knock things off of counters down here. Yeah, everything is big in Texas and the Storms are no different. :)

    I really like the first tree Pic. Nice colors.
    If you don't have creative enthusiasum all you have is a camera in your hands!
