Clouds on a Spring Afternoon

The snow was quickly blown away by the north-westerlies leaving these clouds that look a bit Turner-esque.

Though that association could be 'cos have just got back from the National Gallery - more of this is a latter post (in time) / earlier post (in blog terms).

Heading down the river were the canoes and kayaks of the Devizes to Westminster race. Even though the schedule was changed due to the weather conditions it must have been tough out there.

I've just seen a solitary double canoe go by in the dark of an encroaching storm with torches on their helmets, out there in the middle of the river all too aware that that flash just now was lightning.
