This was my view of the sky at the Bethlehem Fair last Friday evening. The peace and quiet of heaven seemed strangely at home over the bright lights of the carnival rides and hustle and bustle of the country fair.

Please come see if you get time.
I must say it's magical, Sandy. I'm sure it's some kind of weather event but it still looks surreal.
ReplyDeleteVery different sky! Is that light bouncing down off the clouds?
ReplyDeleteHappy Sky Watch!
That is a very pretty night sky scene. My little Sony won't take take night sky pictures, my old Kodak tried.
ReplyDeleteHappy SkyWatching, we are just waiting for Ike.
That picture was taken about 1:00 PM this afternoon. Things are pretty much in order, we do the 'shelter in place' to keep the freeways and highways not so crowded for those forced to evacuate.
..
Yes, we will leave after the storm if our home is unlivable, but it is supposed to be only a Catagory One hurricane when it gets north to us. :-)
And no sea storm surge up here in the hills. There may be a lot of rain if Ike slows down.
..
I'm speechless! (staring with mouth wide open)
ReplyDeleteOnce again Sandy, you inspire and awe us with your ability to capture our imagination with your photgraphs which are otherwordly!
