All righty, here comes the next batch. After going through all my photos from the past week, I decided on pictures from only two days... but there's still quite a few. August 12th. I was going on a photography "expedition", and Tikka came with me. Then, when I got to the east end of the wheat field and looked up at the sun, I thought it was lined up perfectly with the wheat heads.
And yesterday evening's photos have a bit of a story behind them. Just as we were finishing supper, somebody looked out the window and remarked on how neat the sky looked. I took a couple of pictures and put my camera away.
A short while after that, my brother came inside and asked if I wanted to take his place mowing the backyard. I'll take any chance I get to mow - it's one of my favourite jobs - so I said yes and went outside. I'd done a few passes and was watching the sky every time I swung around the face the northwest. The sky kept changing and the sun rays were shining in every direction, and the colours were so pretty. Every time I turned to face that direction, the sky had changed a bit more and was even prettier than before. (A side-note to anyone who likes to mow straight lines across the yard - don't try watching a sunset and mowing at the same time. Either stop the mower or forget having straight lines :D) I finally shut the mower off and went tearing up to the house to get my camera. I came back, took a bunch of pictures, and then turned the mower back on and kept mowing. Except . . . the sky kept changing and I kept wanting to take more pictures, so I kept stopping the mower and picking my camera up again. I don't know how long this went on for before I just stopped the mower where I could see the whole sky, shut the machine off, and sat there watching the sunset. I took a lot more pictures before the sun finally disappeared completely behind some storm clouds off in the distance, and then I finally was able to finish mowing. That story told, here are some of the best pictures I got of that gorgeous sky last night! God's handiwork is so amazing!
