Hail Storm

Well this isn't the promised mono countryside pic and it certainly isn't a minimalistic effort. Instead, this is a picture of hail bouncing off my neighbour's roof during a furious storm this afternoon. It was certainly wild while it lasted and by the time it had passed over, the hail had coalesced into what resembled a dusting of snow. Rain crashed down too, completely overwhelming my gutters at one point. See extras.
