SWF: Ominous Sky Reflected...

While the actual sky doesn't look very stormy in this photo,
what's reflected in the water looks very stormy indeed!

Amazing how a different photographic angle
shows an entirely different sky story!

  1. It does look worse in the water, but still a beautiful photo. Calm before the storm.

  4. I just love it when the sky gets like that just before a storm, it's as if the green in the trees glows against the stormy blue sky - especially in the spring.
