If April Showers . . .

bring May flowers . . .

What does April snow bring?
 Shocked to wake up to this!

Was glad to see this sky
about an hour later.
Expected to melt soon.

The Morning Skies . . .

have been beautiful of late.




And the rains did come 
from these mackerel clouds

Mackerel sky. ... The old rhymes "Mackerel sky, not twenty-four hours dry"
A mackerel sky is a common term for a sky with rows of cirrocumulus or altocumulus clouds displaying an undulating, rippling pattern similar in appearance to fish scales; this is caused by high altitude atmospheric waves. Wikipedia

A Ray of Sunshine . . .

on a dreary December day atMuldoon

yet thankful for moderate temp'.
a ray of sunshine
a cloudy December day
heart lightened anew

Cotton Batting . . .

in the sky.
I've been sewing lately
and the sky reminded me of 
the cotton batting I was using.

When You Raise Your Camera . . .

on a bright sunny day . . .
and can't see the screen . . .
these kind of results are a happy surprise.

All I knew was the Osprey 
were up there in the distance.
  I didn't know this cloud
would be the perfect background.
 I had read an article the day before on using the 'scrn' selection 
on my Canon PowerShot SX40 HS
and taking bursts of photos for bird in flight
and decided to give it a try today 
at the lake in the nearby state park.
