Sky, Clouds, Track & Church

2008.04.03
Don't knock the weather, nine-tenths of the
people couldn't start a conversation if it
didn't change once in a while.
- Kin Hubbard

No issue is more compelling than the air we breathe,
be it hot or cold, be it hawk or human.
- Jack Nicholson

Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.
- Helen Keller

For me, a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes
at every moment; but the surrounding atmosphere brings it to life - the light
and the air which vary continually. For me, it is only the surrounding
atmosphere which gives subjects their true value.
- Claude Monet


Our local dirt racing track in the background.

Donny Schatz was on a mission in 2007. After winning 17 A-Feature events in 2006 en route to his first World of Outlaws title, the native of Fargo, North Dakota wanted to reach the winner’s circle more times in 2007, which he did in convincing fashion..

The 'World of Outlaws' come here every summer. Sprint car racing at its very best.

Church at Bonanzaville Historic Village - West Fargo, North Dakota

I love taking pictures of the sky, it makes a great canvas.

pattyb Wonderful skyscapes! LOVE sprint car racing!! We use to have it here, too many people living near the track complained about the noise so it's gone. ; ((

Great shot of the two time world champion!!

girafferacing Wonderful cloud formations. I spotted some like these yesterday but was driving on the motorway at the time and couldn't stop to photograph them! I like the exposures you've used - you've kept the colour in the sky without the clouds going grey.
