It was the last part of the day to get some harvesting done at the Breton Plots crops research trials, and my boss and I were just getting the last sacks of hand-sickle harvested wheat on the truck when we both noticed these dark clouds starting to roll in on us, threatening rain.

Taken at the Breton Plots near Breton, AB, Canada on October 2, 2015, with my old iPhone 4S camera (4.28 mm f/2.4).
