People occasionally wonder why I get so excited about the sky. It’s there all day everyday and yet I get giddy and amped up or exclaim out loud for others to “LOOK!”. I get teased sometimes and I even get scowled at (usually while driving when I catch sight of the moon, or a sunset or *GASP* both at the same time and I yell “HOLY SH*T!!! (and everyone in the car braces for an impact or other eminent threat)…LOOK AT THAT MOON!” or sunset or a storm or even sometimes a cloud. A happy little cloud. My passengers get exasperated and it’s exacerbated by my nudging periodically to say “look at it NOW!” Sometimes my boys say “MOM! We see it my gosh! It’s the moon and by the way are you TRYING to give someone a heart attack!?”
I always wish that my photographs would do justice to what my eyes see. Sometimes I try to hurry up and get to a nearby place that I know is a better vantage point. I know several places in several towns that offer great views of sunrises and sunsets. Sometimes I take pictures while driving. I’ve actually done really well controlling that addiction because I know it isn’t a safe practice. I’ve posted some brilliant pics I took while going 80mph on the highway and I am not proud of that even though I am a little proud of the photos. I can’t always pull over to take pics but driving to and from work 6 days a week can interfere with sunrise and sunset photo shoots! Just another reason I miss being a stay at home mamma.
A friend shared this guy’s photo with me today and I clicked though several in his gallery and I must say that the images look like the way I see the sky. This is how amazing the sky looks to me. Thanks for sharing Stace, this guys photography is amazing 😀
