Stormy Seas by lauriehiggins

Stormy Seas

My car is still in the shop, so I had to wait until my husband came home to borrow his car to go on a photo shoot. It was raining with distant thunder when I took this photo.

The funny thing was that the shots I took to the left, where the sun was hiding behind the clouds were all really gray, with a lightening where the sun was hiding behind the clouds. But to the east the sky was much more interesting - vivid blue in contrast to the clouds. What I can't figure out is where that light in the clouds was coming from.
It's a cool effect! Very different view from your sunset - I love the different faces of the ocean!

I haven't heard thunder in a looong time! I love how the sky changes colors! I hope you get your car back soon!

LH--the blue sky & the clouds are so cool! Wow! Alice said to send you a big wet lick-- and one to Sophie, one for your hubby for letting you borrow his car & a million to the mechanic working on your car! :-)

The lighting is great in this shot. I like the huge openess of the view.

Great moody feel to this. Hope your car is out of the shop soon. I'm sad we won't be joining you in Maine this year. I had such a great time last year, and that was the start of my 365 project on that camping trip. Have fun and I will see you on the Cape when you get back for our family reunion.
PS Thanks for the FAV on my Ground Zero photo.

A pretty photo of such changing skies yesterday. We had heavy rain in the morning - then just clouds -then bright sun with blue skies followed by rain and thunder in the afternoon. I had to run out between storms to get a shot. Very strange weather we've been having lately!

Beautiful lighting on this cloudy day shot, Laurie. The sun's behind there somewhere giving you that back lit effect. I hope you get your car back soon, and without too much in $$$ damages.

@christiehicks I'm sad you aren't coming too! Now I have no one to float around the lake and share a late afternoon beer with. It's just not the same to do that all by yourself. I'm looking forward to seeing you on the Cape when we get back, though.
