Wordless Wednesday: stormy weather
Author: Mama's Empty Nest
Mama of this empty nest, I’m content to live a quiet, country life with my husband of 40+ years and to view gorgeous sunsets off our own back yard deck. Mama to three adults and Nana to adorable grandchildren, my empty nest fills up again with noise and laughter when they all return 'home'. A former English teacher, reporter/editor, education director for a non-profit organization, and stay at home mom, I retired after a season of substitute teaching at a private academy. Now I enjoy time spent with my grandchildren and family and writing words that seem to pour out of my soul or wandering around the countryside with my camera. Foremost, my faith sustains me as I meander through the empty nest stage of life. My favorite scripture is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” View All Posts
Great capture, Mama. I’ve seen impressive storm clouds and run in to get my camera, and by the time I come out of the house again, the clouds aren’t so impressive anymore. Amazing how quickly that special moment disappears. So good job!

Thanks, CE! I have had that exact same experience of running to get the camera and finding that awesome shot I saw with my eyes is now totally changed. Sometimes I think I need my camera attached to my body by velcro!! 😉

My flowers would love to see some storm clouds (and rain) right about now!

Actually, I took them from my front yard. It was really windy and the rain was starting to fall, but those clouds were too impressive to pass up!
