A String of Pearls

My daughter and I were playing cribbage at our campsite. I was keeping half an eye on the sky, as it looked like it was about to do something incredible. As the show got started, I said, “Quick, Amy, grab your camera!” and together we ran toward the lake and watched the beautiful show.

We were getting back into town, late, from a weekend in the mountains. I was tired and, frankly, tired of taking pictures. I had hundreds from the weekend and didn’t feel like I needed another one. I almost didn’t stop for this shot. Now, it is one of my all time favorites.

I exited the mall on a weekday evening and beheld this unique sky. The picture was taken from the mall parking lot.
