This is absolutely beautifull. Makes me want to move out of the city. I am jealous.

'setting as my background'

Hi Libertine,
I've been a city dweller and a country girl, strongly recommend the latter. This is actually an old photo from my camp director days in the southern US.

Christine,
That one was just right place, right time. I lived in a large tent on a wooden platform and was sitting on the step watching the storm. My SLR was within reach and I just starting taking shots every minute or so.

Hi Josef,
Thanks for coming. I am honored to be "set as background". Thank you.

Lovely, and so peaceful. I wish the rest of my day was going to be like that!

Snap!
I'm looking at a very similar sky out of my window right now. The sun has just set leaving pale gold near the horizon with dark, purplish clouds above.
I also have sihoutted treetops in my view, but sadly no water.
Perhaps it's a sign I should follow your blog - all right then!

Hi Rochelle,
It does look peaceful but it was followed by a huge thunderstorm.

When I am Rich,
Hope you don't get the storm just the colors. Sometimes wish I had the lake again but now the view is mountains which are relly great also.
Welcome aboard,
SQ

Hello charmine,
Thank you. I was really lucky to get this one as the light was gone in about ten minutes.
