A wave of clouds has been captured appearing to swallow a whole city in incredible drone footage.
The image was taken by photographer Willian Fernandes de Souza on Monday in the city of Sabará, Brazil, Jam Press reports.
He had made his way up to Bairro Mangabeira, one of the highest points in Belo Horizonte, at 7am to see if he could capture the breathtaking moment.
Willian also shared a clip of the view on his Instagram, where he has over 11,000 followers.
"On the way to work I noticed that the sky had a different appearance than it usually does," the photographer told http://NeedToKnow.co.uk.
"So before going to work I stopped by the famous Praça do Papa to capture it.
"It was shocking when I stopped this scene from afar. It was something frightening, as if a wave of clouds were going to swallow the entire city. As it is a very high level, you could see it from several places in the city and even from other cities around it."
