OMINOUS CLOUD
A hot summer day, Crayfish Lake, Northwestern Ontario. My father
and I were enjoying an afternoon of fishing during which one extra
dark cloud appeared. We thought we were in the path of a refreshing
rainfall.
|
BIG SPASHES
The raindrops seemed to be making a much larger splash than I
had anticipated. A few loud clunks on the floor of the boat
indicated we were in for more than just a passing rain shower.

TAKE COVER
I dropped my fishing rod (the line can be seen on the left half
of the photo) and told my father to cover his head with his life
jacket.
|
RAINING GOLF BALLS
I was trying to take photos with one hand while covering my
camera and head and protecting my dog (Albany) with the other.

|
DEAFENING
The thunderous roar of the hail hitting the boat and the
surrounding water was not unlike that which would be heard if you
were standing next to a fast moving freight train.
|
DEBRIS
I turned 180 degrees to take this photo as we drifted towards an
island. The spots visible on the upper half are leaves, acorns and
pieces of branches ripped off the trees.
