Eerie Environs

Friday, June 19, 2015


The severe portion of a storm cell that contained a slowly-rotating wall cloud had passed north and east of the town of New London in Henry County Iowa on the evening of Sunday, June 7, 2015. I had ended my pursuit of the storm and found a north option (County Highway X23) to eventually return home on US Highway 218. About 6.2 miles north of New London I came upon this scene at Trinity Cemetery along the roadside: a thin strip of daylight showing along the horizon in an otherwise eerie sky setting. A steady rain was falling with intermittent CG lightning, so I didn't tarry too long here. The image above, captured at 6:05 pm CDT, is a two-photo stitch which created a panorama effect and looks north. Nikon D5000 DSLR camera.
