Message in the skies

I would like to be able to write that this was a meaningful message but not so - just an ad for a band playing locally.
Shortly after this was taken, another fierce thunderstorm hit the area.

Three good things;
1. We weren't hit by lightning!
2. Pleasant chat in the afternoon sun with a local couple who were thrilled to meet some New Zealanders.
3. Getting ready for the big pack once more!

I can never read those things!

[Kerri]

Beautiful shot

[summerfield]

those clouds are really ominous! great shot!

[Arthur Loosley]

Interesting shot. I remember seeing these in my childhood but not since then Presumably because our airspace is so saturated now.

[Gerry]

very interesting photo Maggiemae love the colour of the sky

[Taffy]

The cloud behind the plane is so interesting -- the lighting is really surreal!

[KWind]

Wonderful capture! Love the clouds and light! I saw a plane pulling an ad while we were in San Fran recently.

[tony gig]

Fabulous colour in the sky Maggie, great shot.

[Rick Schies]

That lighting is awesome in the clouds

[Gena Pegg]

Maggie...so sorry to hear of your sisters passing. I missed that somewhere, though I did see that she was ill. Heartfelt wishes to you Maggie.....

[Gena Pegg]

This is a lovely shot with that beautiful colorful cloud!!

[Mickey Anderson]

great shot against that awesome cloud!

[Jen Hudson]

Amazing cloud colour and light. Great silhouette against them.

[Pat Knowles]

Great capture maggiemae......you got that plane & banner in just the right spot! Those clouds are so beautifully lit....love the golden glow & that tiny black plane looking so small.
Where next I wonder?

[Debi 🐩]

Great colour and detail in the clouds

[Maggie]

Love this shot - we only connect the banner with the plane because of what we know, not what we see. Brave little plane to be up there with all those storm clouds around.

[julia]

Great cloud colour....

[Sarah Munnings]

great that you caught plane and banner as it passed over the orangy bit of the sky :)

[Margaret Obey]

Great shot.

[Daisy Miller]

Cool capture

[katy]

A common sight on the beaches of the gulf coast! Beautiful color in the clouds!

[Lisa Pouncy]

I'm sure that message is very meaningful for the members of the band! I love that orange cloud, the silhouette of the plane and the bird flying over xx

[Shepherdman]

Great capture, love the vivid colours

[Whysu]

Stunning clouds. Hurricane Bertha has whipped across the uk today so all we've seen is black clouds.

[Maggiemae]

@happypat We are now at the Mrs S mrs i mrs ssi mrs ppi!

[Maggiemae]

@whysu Oh dear - I thought Bertha had blown herself out!

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae the Mississipi? New Orleans? You are seeing the world!,, no Bertha is in full swing here...rain lashing ion the window...just glad I am not crossing over to Dublin until Thursday....wild seas!

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

Wonderfully dramatic cloud and colours. Fab shot - the silhouettes of the plane, banner and bird finish it nicely.

[Maggiemae]

@happypat heading towards Mineappolis - in Chamberlain today. Didn't see Leana at all which is a shame though i did see two bicyclists today but thought she would be miles away by now!

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae it is a big country so would have been amazing if you had seen her! Bet you were looking all the time! Enjoy Mineappolis......I thought it was Missisipi!

[Sandy]

Awesome sky shot, Maggie. Did you process it at all? It looks so dramatic.

[Maggiemae]

@skstein I don't have to process my photos at all now, Sandy with my new camera! Its fantastic.... the photos just come out like this!

[Maggiemae]

@pixiemac I saw it in the sky,Sarah and waited till it flew in front of this wonderfully coloured cloud!

[Sandy]

P.S. Just saw the beautiful flower Gerry posted for you and read the sad news about your sister. I'm so sorry to read this. Sending prayers of comfort your way.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Stunning colour in the sky Maggiemae -- so dramatic !!

[Stephanie Swift]

Love the comp and the colour on the clouds, fav for me.

[Darlene]

What a beautiful shot, Maggiemae. Love those puffy clouds, the detail you captured and color. I am glad you are not on the move every day as that is hard and so nice to enjoy a place for a bit before moving on. FAV

[Simply Amanda]

What did it say or advertise?

[Carole Imes]

Another fav!!! "Big Head Tom and Parmalee" - interesting name for a band ;-) Love how you caught that expansive sky. The colors are beautiful and you nailed that sign brilliantly on that orange tinted cloud.

[Bev]

Nice shot. I like it against the colorful cloud. Glad you weren't struck by lightening!

[Mr. Spock]

Amazing coloured sky!

[Mary Downing Hahn]

Gorgeous color! Definitely a fave,
