Texture Tuesday ... taking the back road

Posted on 12/17/2013 by

Chased some light 
down a narrow farmland road 
on what was an otherwise ordinary morning
in the Skagit valley.

I'd found god beams*

~ masses of them ~

so I said to the fluffy one riding in back,
it's time to pull over & pay homage.


*otherwise known as crepuscular rays

Photo recipe:
Shot with an iPhone in a ditch
Resized & color effects added over at PicMonkey
Kim Klassen's texture,  aurora

Joining in with the gang over at today's Texture Tuesday  HERE

      Had quite a few errands to run, but I didn't want to leave my roadside perch.
      Dawg and I could have happily spent an hour watching those doG beams shift & move ....

    Love this image, Christi. The little fragment of print in the corners adds to the charm.

    This is so beautiful - the light is perfection. I'd have pulled over to pay homage too. Great capture!

    p.s.

    I love your little Co-Pilot extraordinaire.

    Yes, I always thought these kind of rays were god shining down from the clouds when I was a girl. Didn't have religion as a child, but i guess I was always spiritual.
    Beautiful image. xxoo,

      I know that feeling, sus. Have been chasing rays like this for many a year & in different countries, but it always feels the same ...

    So beautiful, the rays of light over a barren winter field. The contrast is wonderful.
