Slight Chance of Thunderstorms

I shot this with the panoramic Fuji G617 professional camera. Fuji Velvia 100 at f8 for 20 minutes. The road is I-25 in Colorado Springs. This is one frame of film.

    I don't know how you manage to get a 20 minute exposure without the photo coming out all white, but however you do it, great job and wonderful capture!
