Thanks..

It clouded over shortly after I took the image, and then the snow

started blowing with the 50 to 80 kmph winds. It's supposed to drop to

-15°C tomorrow.

Hi Milton,

Nice composition my hat off to you for going for it it's overcast  

here in the UK but I can't see that bit of the sky easily anyway.  

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Folks;

I shot this about an hour ago using a cheap 50mm lens on a Flea 2 16

bit Color Camera, one second exposures attached to a cheap tripod.

The "Streaks" are geese that flew though the FOV when I took it.

Turbulence is horrible and now the winds are gusting to 80 kmph right

now, as we have a cold front coming through.

TTYL..
