Photographer's Note
At the road to mountain Vlasic I saw in the mirror of my car this scene. Then I have not to much time to take this capture. The Rain Curtain has come very rapidly right to me. I took tree shots with the result that you can see here!
No further PP, only resized.
You can see _HERE_ almost the same scenery but then with a lovely sunny weather few days later!

Impressionante vue ... un nuage semblant envahir rapidement la ville et couvrir la ville ΰ la maniθre d'une nuιe ardente volcanique. Bravo pour cet instentanι.

Ja Don, er hoeft niet veel tijd tussen te zitten, tussen het mooie zonnige beeld en de zware regenwolk, maar de laatste is wel spectaculairder, prachtige diepte, goede compositie. Twee mooie beelden trouwens!

Don Quichote de la Mancha op veroveringstocht in Bosniλ? Het is wel een heel uitzonderlijke foto; het mag dan wel een veel voorkomend natuurverschijnsel zijn (zeker in Belgiλ en Nederland ;-)), maar toch krijg je niet veel de kans om het op deze manier vast te leggen. Goed gezien en leuk gedaan.

Greatly captured view of a whole town taking a shower! Very good PoV which allowed to show the depth and a real scale of this scene. Colours and luminosity are nice and real too. Remarkable picture.

Great capture Don!
It look like a huge car wash :)
Impressive clouds, well composed I like the point of view, great colours.
You was lucky to capture this. I hope you didn't get to wet when the rain catched up with you.

A fascinating shot! The entire town looks as if it's about to be swallowed up by that storm. Well done!

Nice catch of this wonder of nature. It's like an orkan! A real difference with that other picture. Nice sharpness. Good one, Don. Well done. :o)

Wow, great view. What surprises me is the bell-shape of the curtain. Probably caused by strong winds at low altitude? I can't think of any other explanation for this at the moment...

Strange, but very nice to see such a rain-cloud ! The summer-edition is a nice one too.
You always must have a look in your mirror, you noticed ?

You had a perfect timing on this one Don. This cloud is amazing, it seems to litteraly fall on the village so fast. Good POV, good angle and very well composed. A very fine catch! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome photo at the great moment! I love Travnik, such a neat little place. I hope you had time to go and see old fort above the city?

You keep surprising me wit the choice of travel places. I was at Vlasic twice, but never in the summer time. During the winter snow period, the place looks even beter.

Very impressive shot, Don. Looks like a giant shower! I like the perspective and scale here which show the incredible size of this rain curtain.

Unique moment that you captured here. Great DOF and POV. I like the composition with the cloud with such rain in the middle of the valley. Well done.

Two points for your reflex. Sometimes it is so hard to stop and if you manage to capture the mement you feel so proud of yourself. You should. Tom
