Texas Sky

The humidity in Texas results in some amazing skies. Add to that some upper air current, and the mix becomes a very real canvas to behold.

Very often, Mike, I just know I’m going to love one of your photographs based on the title alone. Other times the title is a mystery and I don’t know I love it till I open it up. This one falls squarely into the former category. You do justice to the Texas Sky. Beautiful!

  And you have an intellect combined with a down home humor which is, well……bigger than Dallas. Thanks my friend.

    Well, yeah…didn’t know if I should say specifically that you were pretty, or that the sky was pretty…thought it would be understood either way. 🙂
