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!

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

    Fantastic shot -- storm or not! And, yes, calm before the storm!

    Enjoy your weekend!

    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.

    What a beautiful place. No wonder you love it there.

    Looked at the date and thought - ah! Doesn't look like right now I bet.

    I love the dark skies. Just gorgeous. We've had dark clouds in Muskoka.
