1108_1642 Storm Cell
Saskatchewan bills itself as "Land of Living Skies", and rightly so. Here, the sky is the story, as often as not. This is from a deep dive into the archive, reprocessed and cropped in pano format. Originally I framed it in classic thirds, but going pano emphasizes the great sweep of horizon and immensity of the sky above. I shot this on a hike into the buttes of Grasslands one evening with a storm brewing in the distance.
This image kicks off a very brief series of four sky shots. The horizon will be low in the first three and missing entirely in the final photo. Incredible drama and beauty.
Apologies to anyone who faved my first upload this morning. I realized too late that I had already posted it, seven years ago - so I took it down. Sometimes I lose track of what has been shared and what has not. This one is definitely up for public view for the first time.
