Spring Storm, Central Valley. Near Wasco, California. April 5, 2006. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell. (Sales)

The story: In early April 2006 I was returning from a photo excursion to Death Valley and passing through turbulent spring thunderstorms while driving across the lower Central Valley of California.
