Catching the Light

I heard my wife say "get your camera", and as I went outside, I was greeted with this beautiful sky with a hole in the cloud. The streaming light was impressive, and although you can't see it here, the cloud had a very visible silver lining across the upper edge. A good omen, right??


Enjoy the upcoming weekend, and thanks for stopping by! Linking with Skywatch Friday. Click on the link to check out great skies from around the world!

    For a second there I thought it was the Mother Ship landing. That is a big, blazing sunset.

    A great sky indeed. I think your wife have to take a camera herself with her eye for good shots.

    Magical! I like all the photos but especially the story element of the first shot where a woman and child stand to appreciate the sky. I like the contrast in scale, the small figures and the big landscape. A silver lining - it can only be good!
