Munich's weather can be very unpredictable often switching from blue skies to thunderstorms in a matter of hours. On this evening I was walking home from a local beer garden and as I walked the temperature was falling, the wind was starting to blow and the sky was darkening. Hurrying through Odeonsplatz, I came across these fabulous blue-grey rolling clouds and stopped to take a quick picture. Five minutes later the rain came down.

What a sky!
Those bulging clouds come as a perfect contrast to the strict lines of the architecture in front!
You have such an amazing eye. These are fabulous images.
Incredible sky. The lights in the arches make the perfect contrast.
I am really impressed with this blog. Every photo is of professional quality.
Great capture of the dark clouds! I like the angle!
Thanks all. A lot of the time it is just a matter of luck - the right place at the right time as in this case.
Thanks AB - the secret is to start your photoblog a year after you arrive in the city. That way you have a choice of thousands of images to provide your on a day.
It will get a little trickier in a few months when my backlog is used up!
