Skywatch *4

* *
Dear friends, I am but subliminaly connected to the
net and will be out of range until the end of next week.
Please leave me a comment and forgive me for
not checking your post this week. Will
rectify the omission when back in range.

**
A rising sheet of nimbus...

looming over the sky...

welling up like a tsunami...

be afraid, be very afraid!

These photographs were taken within the space of 5 minutes.

    Just stopping in to say hello and wow, beautiful photos, What happened after you stopped taking them???

    I was out of internet and cell range for the last week too. We were 10,000 ft. up in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, in a little log cabin with no running h2o, and electricty only by a generator. It really did us good... but now, so much to catch up on!
