One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple. (Psalm 27:4)
Last September, Doug and I went with some friends to a Christian conference at Gull Lake Ministries in Michigan. Sitting on the dock one evening at sunset, I snapped these photos of the sky over the lake.
after retiring I started becoming aware of things I never noticed/er/paid attention to before. Like the beauty of an empty sky. The tranquility of cumulus clouds gently crossing the horizon, the spectacle of storm clouds broiling overhead.
i love Michigan. i think we have visited 2 times. hoping for another trip soon. fingers crossed for that. gorgeous state. love the clouds. what a beautiful night. ( :
Moody skies are a great photo subject, they add so much drama to the images, that you can't take off your eyes from them. I love how dominating they are in your shots as well as their texture. Wonderful!
Hi LInda! Wow, those are some clouds! I wonder what they meant to you, after being at the Conference that day. I think meetings on faith often open me to see things differently...more in line with the Creator.
I just got back from Florida. I saw a black heron, and thought of you! Ceil
Oh, my, Linda, what awesome photos. The sky and clouds are so beautiful. You captured the mood so well of the sky. The pictures have a spiritual feeling.
You two have gotten to attend lots of conferences in some beautiful places. This place looks gorgeous... Great set of photos... I love sky and cloud pictures like that.. It's almost as if the sky is 'talking' to us!
I love the name "Gull Lake", Linda, and these photos are lovely. Those clouds are amazing!
