God's Paintbrush

The sky has always fascinated me. The constant changing of its dynamic, color and intensity can captivate my attention for hours. I like to think of it as God's paint brush. Each twilight he creates a different picture that is as unique as a fingerprint.


The setting sun can create colors that could only be created by God himself. The mixture of clouds, the deep blue sky on the eastern horizon, and the golden light cast by the sun can combine for an amazing sight.



Sometimes I get frustrated with having to try and avoid power lines out here when I shoot the horizon. But, oftentimes I have to remember they are just as much part of the frame as the sky itself. Power lines are about the only extensions up from the ground that are out here. Trees are slightly less common.




Since it's hard to see all around my Tahoe from my mirrors, I like to have the additional little mirror. Sometimes, the best views are through that little tiny mirror, because it's almost like having a "fish eye" lense on a camera - only a lot cheaper.
