If you saw this sky, you'd think a storm was coming to wreak havoc, right? Wrong, at least in my part of Portland. Since we moved here in June, 2006, I've seen dark skies like this a few times, dark skies that in Mississippi most often meant a thunderstorm would arrive shortly. Here in Portland, I've heard it thunder two, maybe three, times, period.
Coming from behind my building, the sun reflected on the downtown buildings and made for a photo with impact.
I couldn't resist focusing on the sweet gum tree through the window for a photo.
I love the contrast here.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say you have another storm heading your way, but I guess it's not as threatening as it looks. Have a nice weekend! How's Momma and Flat Stanley? I hope all is well.
ReplyDeleteWow, it does look like a rather thrilling storm is on the way.
ReplyDeleteOur sky is often like this but more clouds and then it rains.
ReplyDeleteI love the difference in the pics. The city skyline looks great with the dark clouds.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking uh oh storm coming but it seems not :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the contrast between the sky and the light of the buildings
nicely captured. i'm originally from the philippines so one of things i am thankful is that i rarely experience lightning and thunderstorm here in the bay area.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos. The contrast is impressive !
ReplyDeleteWow! Two great photos!
ReplyDeleteInteresting picture.....I am wondering what kind of tree this is blooming?
ReplyDeleteI like both pictures, the same and so different.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome!
