Trapped in my heart

Description

The river level down the front of our house, is beginning to drop, leaving behind some interesting sand patterns. Here, the clouds appear to be trapped in a heart.

First of all, I love this type of terrain that I think would give you so many different beautiful looks. The framing of the picture and its depth focus in on a particular area. What a wonderful surprise to see that heart shaped water puddle with the reflections of the clouds on it. That is a gorgeous sky. The colors work so well together, your lighting is outstanding, love the title. Gorgeous work my friend. #1471704
