The sky is majestic and and lends to a very powerful scene. Just sold and home and will be relocating to the Ozark mountain area. If I'm not active in commenting for a little bit that is due to trying to find our perfect retirement home. My dream is coming true due to the photo ops that our new location promises. Will be checking in to see your work often. #4067992
