Front Range Thunderstorm (Photo Reference)



Time for another painting, so I went looking through my photos.  I looked on the computer and found some photos from a trip to Colorado in 2006.  I was visiting friends in Colorado Springs, and got caught in traffic while driving from the north part of Springs to the south.  One of those quick late afternoon front-range thunderstorms moved through while I was sitting in traffic, so I was able to take pictures.  I really like the colors and composition in the original photo, but to make it useable as a photo reference, I used Painter to enlarge it and get rid of the fences and buildings in the foreground.
