It is strange how we sometimes look at things and see beauty then can see something entirely different when we try to look back at the same object. Just yesterday, the clouds in late afternoon sky appeared to frame the hidden sun in a perfect manner. I spent several minutes photographing the clouds as I was enthralled by what was set before me. The magnificent view was enough to leave me spellbound for a good ten minutes until the wind shifted and sent my lovely vision askew. Nothing could prepare me for the photographs that I viewed today. What popped out at me was not what I saw yesterday....not at all.
In the photographs, I found a face with deep set, hollow eyes and a rather horrified looking grimace of a mouth. What? This was not what I saw at all! Thinking perhaps it was just a quirky incident, I looked at the other photographs...yep, just the same. That face was still staring at me as if it was trying to tell me of some terrifying incident that was to come. Do the clouds know something? Are they harbingers of what is to come with the pending storms potentially heading our way? Should I be worried?
Life has a way of making some of us ponder things far too deeply. I can live for the moment in most circumstances but, occasionally, I get a gut feeling that usually bears truth. These clouds, however, are just that...clouds.
