Atom Bomb

 An atom bomb? Nah, just the sunset up on the hill this evening. But instead of the sun, the story was the cloud. It looked like a bomb went off to me. What do you think it looks like?







The white cat sat on the fence and silently peered at us from behind the leaves.


“Folks used to leave the Last Day and the end of the world in the Lord's hands, but now they've took it over themselves, with the atom bomb. That's how-come everyone's so uneasy. They don't trust each other like they used to trust the Lord.

~Antoine de Saint-Exupér

Oh that is quite spectacular. It goes look like an explosion but the different views of it are stunning. I love the quote you choose too. I was just reading up on J Robert Oppenheimer (Father of the Atom Bomb) and Richard Feynman (theoretical physicist). They both had such very biazzare and sad lives. Oppenheimer was also a theoretical physicist.
I hope you have a great weekend.

Wow! If you didn't mention that it is a cloud, I would think it is a big explosion. Spectacular sunset. That cat was a silent observer.

I have to agree with you, it does look like a bomb went off. One of the others looks like smoke from a fire.

Oh, I just love this quote. You take some of the prettiest sky photos, my friend. What I see in these photos is God's incredible sky. Have a peaceful and restful weekend. : )

Wow, what a dramatic cloud. Great capture.
Our sky is so murky from the fires in Northern California.
Its so sad how everything is going up in flames.
We are safe but it's still scary with the speed and devastation the fires cause.

Beautiful sunset. The cat looks like he might be hiding from an atom bomb.

Yes, I was thinking a bomb too. But a pretty one. Is there such a thing?!! ~Andrea xoxoxo

Shug said...

Well, it certainly does resemble the formation of what I think an atom bomb would look like. Such great pictures. Enjoy your weekend.

Wow that is impressive. The last sky shot looks like a great big bird taking off in flight! xoxo

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
