High-Plains Homestead with High-Based Storm

2026-03-17 By Roger Edwards

High-Plains Homestead with High-Based Storm
[Click Image to Enlarge]
A former marginal supercell threw its greatest beauty into the sky as it moved into a less-favorable air mass and weakened, spawning a double rainbow beyond an abandoned and mostly collapse High Plains homestead.  A panoramic sweep was needed to show the fullest possible view of this storm, though it cannot portray the cool outflow wind nor the fresh, earthy aroma of dryland rains.  From the rain core in the center, I was still getting some light precip.  Small hail had fallen at this site several minutes earlier.

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
