August Introspection…

August introspection is slowly settling into my heart once again as summer is winding down…soon it will be going going gone…summer this year disappeared too fast!

It reminds me how quickly the years fly by…how life passes on faster than we want…which means we either grab on or hang on.

August is my birthday month…a time of gratitude and a time of thanksgiving for the life that God has given me.

Each birthday brings me to a place of self examining…how can I improve myself…what do I need to change? We will never know it all and we will never be perfect people…I am not perfect at all, I am more of a klutz with a good heart! I love to learn new things to improve myself…and I love to write and to capture lifetime photos:)

August weather can be unpredictable…you never know what is brewing…such as today’s forecast for severe thunderstorms and lightning and…

I will be watching and grabbing images of the storm to share with you all:)

Usually August will bring summer’s last hurrah…a week of 100 degree days with very warm nights.

And you’ll find me clicking away as much as I can, trying to grab the remaining summer we have left. Late August brings many enchanted evenings outside…

Perfect for photos that bring much delight! And as I look up to the heavens, I stare in wonder at the magical colors displayed above me.

I love living here…never a dull moment…always something that brings life to your heart:)

I wanted to share this interesting photo with you as I have never seen anything like these clouds…you may need to click on the image to bring it up so you can see the ethereal but enchanting clouds…they look a bit transparent and yet they look like lace in the sky or voile…beautifully odd but very interesting!

And as I swing through life…I trust Him who holds the ropes to my life…I look up and laugh for He has me in His hands:)

This post is about weather and clouds as we have had very unusual weather here the last few years and some of it has been extreme. This is for my cloud loving subscribers…enjoy and enjoy…as these are only the tip of the iceberg!

The photo above of the clouds was going over the house and my head…I stepped off the patio to shoot it. Kind of a WOWSERS to look up and see this or any of the storms!

SONY DSC

This storm showed up around 1:00pm on an afternoon in June with several individual storms….some were dropping…some were rotating and most were quite ominous!

SONY DSC

And then there is this…amazing to see thunder heads and clouds of this size with all the varied colors…odd beauty on camera!

SONY DSC

I have to include my twist and shout clouds too!

And the rumple bumple clouds…

Hello…Tokyo Oklahoma?

Uh…welllll…this formation was interesting?

And God came in with His paint brush and fluffed…then stroked the clouds a bit
