Photo Challenge: Dramatic – Part 2*

Published on by J. Kelland Perry

Here is the second (and final) instalment of dramatic photo highlights from my blogging archives. I’ll start with two “vivid skies” left over from Part 1:

I wasn’t long running for my camera when this giant funnel cloud appeared by our house a few years ago. At first I thought it was a tornado!

Cotton candy clouds at sunset are always a summery treat:

A perennial favourite—my clothespins encased in a glaze of ice:

A spider and her web I discovered on my kitchen window one misty summer night. I was amazed by the detail:

This ghostly tree caught my eye one November, outside a Grand Falls-Windsor inn:

Berg watching in Greenspond was a delight that day in June 2015.

  2. Really stunning photos, Jennifer! It would be too hard to pick a favorite so I won’t 🙂 Well … if I had to, it would be the clothespins encased in ice. Takes me back to my childhood when my mom would hang our wet clothes on the line even in winter. To finish drying them, we’d take them off the line and drape them over a clothes rack over our furnace. Sometimes we even had to “break” the legs of our jeans because they would be frozen solid. Gosh, what memories your photo evokes!

      1. I grew up in a very small town called Fort Hunter, about 40 miles northeast of Albany, New York. So, when I was kid, our winters could be very cold and snowy. Even now, most people I know up there will put their clothes on the line even if they have a dryer as long as the weather is good. Clothes dried in the sunshine smell so good!

  4. These are great, Jennifer. I also love the clothespins in ice! But honestly, they’re all terrific. The detail in the spider web is amazing and if I had ever seen a twirling cloud like that I also would have thought it was a tornado!
