Mirage

Isn’t it almost magical when something you least expect comes to life?
It was an identical emotion when dark clouds appeared out of the blue and there were raindrops on my head this Thursday.
Like I have told many, seeing a cloud cover used to prompt us to ask for a ‘free period’ in school. 
The magnitude of actual precipitation can be imagined.
Rumbling thunder, cracks of lightning, subtle showers. 
Makes for any family in Oman to run the three flights of stairs to the terrace and take pictures. Mine is no different. 
Amongst all my excitement, I also managed to click this picture. 
In the middle of the Arabian peninsula, such weather is nothing less than a mirage – that actually exists.
