I don't remember the exact place this shot was taken but I do recall that we were on our way home from Niagara on the Lake one summer evening. This beautiful vista presented itself. Unfortunately, due to the time of day and lack of light, I was not able to capture the whole range of colors in one exposure so I was forced to snap a series of images that I would later compose into an HDR image.

The result was more "electric" then my minds eye remembers it but it's still a worthy image for those that didn't see what I saw.

Mid-day photography is rarely rewarding but I felt compelled to take some images of this particular vista while venturing down some country paths in my neighborhood. Not because the crop is particularly interesting or because the colors spoke to me in any way. It was more the lines–the very blue sky and the very green field separated by a band of dark trees. The clouds also add an ominous feeling regal sailing ships on oceanic skies.
