Week 7 Challenge - Weather

This week don't be afraid to venture out into the rain or snow and capture it in a beautiful photo. Where it's scorching heat, pouring rain and lightning or heavy snow this week I'm looking for your most artistic photographs of weather.

My Addition

I have no photos in my gallery of weather and as my camera is still not fixed I couldn't take any for my addition so this is a stock photo from pixabay I'm using as an example for this weeks subject.

I'm going to enter this one for the first time. Just a quick question though. Are Photoshop edits allowed and if so to what degree? Thanks for the competition @rickyjrx and for taking the time and effort to organise it.

Oh yes edits are welcome, it must just pertain to the subject of the week that's the main thing, I will edit the above post to explain photo editing welcome to the competition, the more the merrier!.

Thank you for the reply. I look forward to entering.
