The Friday File – Angry Clouds

Clouds 5

This photo is certainly a far cry from the blissful and serene sunrise photo I posted yesterday.  I took this photo last weekend.  Huge apologies for the quality of the photo.  The scenes over Lake Michigan can literally change in a matter of minutes.  These thunderous, angry clouds literally rolled by, hanging extremely low over the water.

It’s a solemn day as we remember what occurred 14 years ago in New York City.  I felt it fitting to show this photo, not as a way of continuing the anger towards those who caused so much indescribable pain.  I noted the words, “rolled by”; it is my hope the anger will continue to roll by and be replaced by hope and a brighter day ahead.

    We may really hope that the world will learn by this Cher. It was so tragical.

      It really was Irene. I think we all remember exactly where we were when we heard this literally unreal news. I hope for that too, Irene. Cher xo

      Isn’t that a crazy sky? The clouds just hung over the water so low. Yes, it was an unreal day, wasn’t it? I was so scared and confused by it all. 🙁

    I love the different faces of the same landscape when the weather or daylight changes. Thank you for sharing, Cher 🙂

    They look like they are literally just rolling in. Reminds me of a Guinness advert, now I’m picturing the clouds are horses lol

      *LOL* They literally did roll in! Ah, we can’t see that advert over here! I wonder if it is on the internet? By the way, your post (Steve’s link) regarding the spider was *literally* in my news feed right before Time Nexus’s post about spiders: https://wordpress.com/read/post/feed/1294784/804663924 I thought, is there something going on with spiders in the blogosphere this evening? *LOL* Cher xo

    By the way the Guinness and is actually about surfing but your clouds reminded me of it. It’s probably on YouTube 🙂
