Hi Friends, Yep its another photo taken out front of my house on Lake Erie! Hope your not getting sick of these, thing is everyday the view is different and now that we are moving I've got to take all the shots I can to rememember this by.
We've had alot of storms on the Lake Lately, cold fronts come in and the warm fronts follow and cause a big ruckus with the weather. The wind has been blowing 25 knots for days, Its really loud, not just the wind but the lake is really stirred up so the waves are crashing and we are getting built up ice on the shore from it freezing, I hope tomorrow I can go down and get some shots of that as it should be pretty but today it was blowing too hard to stand down on the beach. This photo however was taken the otherday right before the wind started again. I couldn't help but notice how low the clouds were, pretty much telling me something was coming.

Things are getting exciting here, my Husbands ship is on its way to lay up, I should be able to pick him up tomorrow!! yeaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Then we are heading to Vemont for a few days see you when we get back!!

Your so going to miss the lake Donna. Every day different and so beautiful. I love this 'Lake" feel captured. (I know you know what I mean). I love the blues and the soft clouds with the menacing ones towards the horizon. It is a beauty. Well done.

Hi Donna, the pattern in the clouds is very nice. You did well to capture them and you will miss this place I believe.

Well done and I hope that the moving won't be too painful.

Hi Donna,

I am surprised on how well the exposure of the sky does not underexpose to much the lower part of the picture. Good capture.

Where are you moving, near Stowe I guess? If so, lucky you.

PC :)

Hi dear friend,
very interesting shot. Great textures and colors.
Nice title for it. Hope that the storms are ending.
Have a great time with your husband :)
All the best for both of you.

Hi Donna
Very interesting composition.
The clouds are wonderful.

Wonderful colors! i took one look at the thumbnails and i thought it was a lake on a windy day. The sun peeking through gives the picture a nice attitude.
