Watching the Sky
I am trying something different, and that is taking pictures of the sky, especially when the cloud displays such beautiful images.
As I watched my son in a soccer match, I saw this wonderful ray of sun light behind the cloud. It reminded me of child hood when we would guess what the cloud looks like.
Though it was raining pretty much all day, the sun finally came out in the early evening, and gave me an opportunity to marvel.
Watching the Cloud
This cloud looked like a dinosaur head, and it caught the sun in its mouth. It was a beautiful scene to see! All the sun rays shot out around this cloud.
Maybe It's an Alligator
I played the guessing game with these two little girls who told me it looked like an alligator! The two-year-old could not even talk that much, but insisted it's an alligator, so I gave up and went along with her!
Going Down
The dinosaur/alligator was taking the sun down as it slowly descended. Sitting on the metal benches for two hours was very uncomfortable, and watching the cloud gave me a break to forget the numbness in my body.
One Last Look
Then the dinosaur disappeared, leaving the a little bit of the sun behind, far in the horizon! If I didn't pay attention to the sky, I would have missed seeing such wonderful transformation from nature.
Have a fantastic weekend, everyone!
You have shifted your focus, at least for today. You should have a lot of fun by then.
ReplyDeleteDo you look at the sky where "the Dead Man's Fingers" are pointing?Anyhow, are those fungus in your previous post? Too curious to ask.
Hi Rainfield,
ReplyDeleteI don't know what those were! They must have been fungus, creepy ones! They are gone now, and left no trace..
Great captures, the sun rays look amazing! The cloud formation reminds me of crab pincers, pruning shears or even a bird beak. Fun post!
ReplyDeleteyour post shows us that we don't have to be really somewhere to take magnificent pictures and observe nature's transformations, the sky is an immense source of these all. love how the sun rays emerges from the clouds. really beautiful capture Icy.
ReplyDeleteSo very beautiful. I love the way you shared your experience with us, felt like I was right there with you watching the sky. :)
ReplyDeleteYou caught that cloud at the perfect time. When I first saw it I thought it looked like a dragon. That's very close to a dinosaur or an alligator. I love the way the sunlight is coming out of its mouth.
ReplyDeleteit's amazing how you turn something ordinary to extraordinary. happy weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteI love your view of the sky, you captured the sun's rays beautifully. I do see a dinosaur's head and he's trying to swallow the sun.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend,
Judy
Wow, that's an amazing site. And once you told me what you thought it looked like I could definitely see it. I think the baby was right: alligator! LOL. Wonderful shots. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteIt really is amazing isn't it?
ReplyDeleteNow that is a spectacular shot. You caught it perfectly. Well done Icy.
ReplyDeleteI love cloud watching. Very nice ones.
ReplyDeleteI love how you've captured them and the story of the girls are very sweet. The sky is an amazing thing to watch, changes every minute.
ReplyDeleteOh, BTW my new page is now published on my other sites only. Added a new button to it. You're the first visitor. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. You could look for others and compile a list of cloud formation photos.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see them.
Totally awesome!
ReplyDeleteYour photo line up is well done!
Wow those are some really great photos of clouds. I like the movement
ReplyDeleteI too like to see various forms and shapes appear and disapear in the sky in the form of clouds. Great post!
ReplyDeleteWe call the rays "God fingers". Reminding us He's here. Reaching out to us through the beauty of His creation.
