Vigil
After the Storm, Amherstburg, ON
A huge storm came through Essex County on August 19th. I was out getting gas when the clouds opened up, revealing a beautiful sunset. I literally ran through the house, collecting umbrella and camera (whose battery was quite low, apparently), and out to the dock along the Detroit River behind my house. I took as many shots as my battery would allow, but every time I changed position something else was revealed. For example, this heron / crane was there the entire time and I didn't realize until I had already taken a bunch of the boring old ducks underneath the dock ;) If you look at the other two shots I took farther back, keep in mind that the crane was there the entire time. Try to pick him out from the rest of the silhouette. And when I turned to go home, I saw the largest, most vivid rainbow I have ever seen. That was about the same time my battery ran out.
