Before Hurricane Ike touched down upon my house, I took this picture. It made me think how some beauty comes with disaster.

It really was, fortunately for where I was, the force was not as immence as the people who were still by the sea wall. We survived maybe a week max without power, them? Months of nothing.

What we have right here is an amazing example of the photagrapher's ability to see the extraordinary in the ordinary. Most people would think, awww beautiful sky, and keep walking. Not you. Wonderful job. True art. Nature at one of her rare bipolar moments.
