15/09/2017 I have been busy all day so a few photos this evening of a thundery sky.

Maximum temperature 17C,  minimum 10C.  7 km/h cold NE wind with 18 km/h gusts. No rain overnight, but it has been raining on and off during the day and it was quite noisy with thunder around 19h30 when I took these photos.

I walked around outside so these photos are taken from various places around our house before it started raining here.
Looking down the road, the sun is setting on the left and it is raining on the right.

As above but a little closer.

Walking backwards up the road I managed a slightly wider view.

Further over to the left.

Our house (green shutters) on the left in this shot, with a neighbour (red shutters) on the right. 

In the back garden looking over the pampas.

Similar view to the above
All these photos were taken over a matter of only a few minutes.

Mushroom in the lawn.

and my favourite rose.
