Description

Hello All!! This was taken in/on lake Michagan this summer before a big thunderstorm came in . Christina was staring at the far off lighting to the south ( still about 10 miles away ) ,mesmerised by it here -!. We had just had a lakeside picnic ( these amazing green olive burgers that are popular in that region there ) and after, Chrissy wanted to go for a swim . The clouds rolled in and started to look angry. In this shot I had run down to get Chrissy out of the water as the fist signs of lighting started far off .( The weather had changed in minutes) and quickly snapped this before I called to her. Midwest weather is so unusual to me -One minute its a beautiful summers evening then 20 minutes later crazy stormy front moves in ) ~! THat night we had a huge thunder and lighting storm and trees fell over - we lost the power and had to light candles. This was a bit grainy so did a little of my postwork to soften it in paintshop. I liked the mood here so thought I would share it !! Thanks for all your time and comments! Love to all!! ((( big hugs ))) ~ Kimmers ! :O) ! ♥

Wow. I don't want to keep using the word "awesome" ... but some of your pictures render me near speechless, and "awesome" is all I can pull out of my ... hat. Awesome! Li
