Photographer's Note
I have shot pictures that are far better in may ways but i have shot few that have as smuch significance. i was in Chicago on September 10th on a business trip and was trapped there on the 11th after the tragic events in New York. Luck intervened in the form of a Hertz 250 pickup which i used to flee the city returning to my home in oregon. For two days as i thundered west on interstate 90, the airways were filled with nothing but hate radio chatter as the frustrated and ugly side of many came out. i was desperate for proof that the America i know and love was alive and well. Two days later and about 40 miles west of Bozeman , Montana i stumbled onto this scene of approaching storm clouds, filtered lighting, golden fields and new rolled hay. I slammed on my brakes and captured this decisive and reinforcing moment.

you don't have to be so humble =) there's nothing a little noise filter can't take care of. it's a great shot, and a very meaningful story. thanks so much for sharing, anthony.

These wonderful clouds and so typical for Montana ... you could watch them "playing" for hours. I spent my last vacation there and loved it right from the beginning. Cowboy land still alive in a way.
