The Friday File………….brushstrokes of streaky clouds

Lake Michigan Sunrise Feb 20 2015

What a wonderful sunrise this morning!  I was in awe of the streaky, wispy clouds that seemed to hover above Lake Michigan this morning.  The sun began to rise, and the pattern of criss-cross clouds appeared above.  It almost seemed as if the clouds were trying to replicate their version of a spotlight at some fancy premiere.  You know what I mean; the spotlights that compete for, well, the spotlight! *grin*  I think of the old days of Hollywood when a movie premiere forced a couple of spotlight operators to flood the night’s sky with beams of light which only seemed to detract from the main event, not necessarily highlighting it.

How can you tell I think a lot about these clouds? You may also notice the lake has a rather dulled sheen to it; there is some ice on the surface, but it’s not frozen by any means.

I hope you have a magical Friday!
