Bangalore Storms



So i know you all probably want a good introduction post to Bangalore before i do this but right now all i have are pictures of this crazy storm that came in and blew really hard on sunday night.  storms like these used to come into africa and they were crazy looking.  i tried to capture them well but the crazy thing is that there are no mountains around here, so a storm cloud with wind can whip across the earth pretty quickly.  what i like the most is when you see the cloud from far off because all it looks like is a huge black death cloud coming at you.  sort of how i pictured the last section of the Lord of the Rings trilogy where Sauron releases all his armies and they are preceeded by a blackness.  these storms look like that and then about 30 seconds to a minute before they hit you will feel a cold wind come and then all of the sudden it is raining, and storming, and lightning everywhere.  it is great!!  these pictures were taken from our apartment.  and don't worry there will be more pictures of the apartment also.
