I made this image at Longboat Key Florida during the summer. I was traveling for work and stayed at a hotel there. Looking down at the beach behind the hotel from my balcony I noticed the signs of an approaching storm. I grabbed my gear and ran down to the beach. I don't think I had ever experience such a graphic approaching storm up close like this. It was quite amazing to see. I hope the the image conveys the experience. I decided to go B&W and added a touch of coffee tone. I used Nik Silver Effex Pro 2 for the conversion and Adobe Lightroom for further processing.
