Most of my shots are outdoor, landscape, travel... so when I heard "moody" I thought of a couple shots that made me feel a particular way or brought back certain memories. Not sure it's the best fit to the theme, but am interested in what people think.

This is taken at a relative's house in a small western mountains town. Having grown up in high-desert but now living in the Pacific Northwest, I really miss lightning storms. It came in quickly, I threw up the tri-pod in haste, and manually fired off a number of 10-second frames hoping to catch some bursts framed up with this old shed on their property. I can still smell that ozone air and loved the darker somber mood it captured.
