Field Notes: Wyoming Storm

You don't have to be standing in the rain to know a storm is coming.

In Wyoming, you can see it from miles away.

Dark clouds gather on the horizon while a curtain of rain slowly works its way across the prairie. The wind changes. The air cools. The grasses catch the last warm sunlight while the sky turns shades of blue that only seem to exist for a few quiet minutes.

That's the part I remember most.

Not the thunder.

Not the lightning.

The light.

Everything seems softer.

Calmer.

The whole landscape pauses between sunshine and rain.

This colorway reminds me of those moments.

Deep blue.

Sky blue.

Indigo.

The colors of a Wyoming sky after the rain has found the prairie.

Storms have a way of changing more than the weather.

They change the colors around us.

And sometimes, if we're paying attention, they remind us to stop for a moment and simply look.
