14th April
Set off straight from work for this one, and actually chased! Had a large cell just to my north so got on the back edge and followed it. Nice updraft though never really got going, but then it is only April!
When I eventually found a place to stop it didn't look
as menacing as it did earlier, but the dark base makes a nice contrast
with the rape seed as per below.
I let it go to chase other storms coming, but at one point (whilst tramping about some woods trying to get a better view of another cell but failing) I looked back to my original storm and could see the convection appearing over the trees. Managed to capture a bit of pileus.
After driving for miles trying to get better views, I ended up at Blackbush Airfield, which is 10 mins from my house. Sat there watching the sun go down and the cb's left slowly disappearing.
One last shot of the sun and back home. Others chasing
faired better with a funnel being photographed near Northampton.
