Beautiful horses

Morning view...

Clouds rolling in later in the afternoon..

Today was one of those days. Everywhere I turned, the sky just took my breath away. I might sound as if I am repeating myself, but it is worth noting over and over again that the Colorado skies really are breathtaking. I did the same thing with the ocean, didn't I?? Just a normal day of errands, and I had, to stop. I stopped at the corner, as I made the turn from our house. I stopped as I left our sub-division. I stopped as I drove to the bank. I had the red light long enough to get a pic of the 'horse sculpture'. I love this sculpture of the 5 horses, captured in the breeze, perched on a hill, with the mountains in the background. Stunning!! We have been here for over a year now and this was the first chance I had, where there were no cars going by, (a very busy intersection) the sky was gorgeous, and in a split second, I got it! The mountains looked like there was a spotlight hovering over the snow caps all day. Very dramatic. I had to stop.We are expecting some much needed rain over the next couple of days, and the clouds have rolled in. You can see the progression with the day. Major photo op. Really glad I took the time to stop, even just for a simple 'snap'; gotcha!!!

The 'Ethereal'

As artists, we tend to see things just a bit 'differently' than the rest of the world.

We'll see a cloud which looks like a dove or a rock on the beach which we might think is the greatest gift from the depths of the ocean....hence:

'Looks Like a Dove to Me'
and
'Child of Wonder'

Looks Like a Dove to Me...

Ah, the lazy days of Summer...childhood memories of laying in the grass with your friends, looking up at the sky and naming the clouds, finding images that you are certain look like someone or something. Well, sure enough, Beach Week gifted us with more than just beautiful weather, sand and surf, but a DOVE in the clouds...hmmmm...could it be a sign?
