Wonderful how the rays of the unseen sun shine thru, or are those bands of rain???? Cool shot of that lonesome cow.....

@Susan: The sun was just really intense thru the clouds.

Daniel from Córdoba, Spain

Cool picture. The sun beams through the clouds make it appear as if God was about to pop and speak.

@Daniel: I took a wide angle a few seconds later that really brings out the Stairway to Heaven element.

Lovely composition. I love the horizon line. God speaks to everyone and evreything. All we have to do is to look for simple signs.
This is such a brilliant shot.!

@Taylor: Thx for visiting, T-money. I think I screwed this pic up actually - unneeded straightening and undersaturation. I smell a repost in its future.

Lindsay from North Carolina, United States

Great shot Tex! I love the sky.
I don't like cows and they don't like me...I made the mistake one time of walking thru what I thought was just an empty field with a bucket...I all but sh*t myself when I saw the herd of running cows behind me...I threw the bucket and jumped a fence. Crazy cows!

@Lindsay: See, I don't mind cows. Cows and I get along. We understand each other. It's horses I hate. Ornery hateful beasts. My county is festooned with horse farms but you'll notice I don't find them sponge-worthy enough to photograph. Moo for me.

Eleftheria from Athens, Greece

Wow! 5 stars from me, great composition and light!

@Eleftheria: E-whirl! 5 stars?! You're gonna need 6 stars when you see the wide-angle shot I took right after this pic!
Loved your 'foggy' pics.
