Clouds over Frank Lake


I love our wonderful Alberta skies! They seem to go on and on forever, especially when seen over the flat prairies and in an area like Frank Lake. This photo was taken yesterday afternoon, SE of Calgary, at Frank Lake, on 16 August 2014.
I ended up being out all day, spending three hours in the morning birding with a group of friends at Carburn Park in the city. It's the time of year when lots of the various tiny Warblers are passing through the city again. Then, Flickr/birder/photography friend, Pam, asked if I wanted to go SE of the city to the Frank Lake area. We had a fun afternoon, with a few reasonable bird sightings. As you can see, though, there were no close birds seen in this view from the blind, ha. The clouds were amazing, though somehow I didn't manage to get any good photos of them. Seeing them reflected in the lake was perhaps the best place. Thanks, Pam, for suggesting a drive to one of my favourite areas! Hope your photos came out better than mine, lol!!
