amazing skies|pictures my grandfather took

I haven’t posted any of Papa’s images in a while – I am way behind on blogging over here.  I started posting this series of pictures my grandfather took (“Papa” to me and all that knew and loved him), and it has been a while since I have added any here.  I have been updating my new computer, moving files, switching hard drives, and all sorts of other associated nonsense which is the part of photography that gives me a major headache!  But it must be done.

I came across these and thought they deserved to be seen again, both gorgeous images of the sky up at the lake in Michigan, with colors and textures that only nature could create.  That sky was definitely one of Papa’s favorite subjects, I can’t even count how many times I saw him out there with his tripod:
