Today's photo is a wider shot of the scene I posted a couple of days back of storm clouds at the Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok. The storm clouds are receding, the ground is starting to dry up and more people are out in the open, though many remain in the shelter of the pavilions.

After the rain had passed I stepped out to take more photos. Talk about a cloud as black as night! As the storm that had passed over us retreated, a brief glimpse of the sun lit up the gold on the pagodas at the Wat Phra Kaew and threw the scene into dramatic contrast with the stormy skies.
