Armageddon

Driving through the Texas countryside has always been scenic and peaceful.  I expect to see lovely rolling hills, a variety of trees, horses, cows, and occasionally a sculpture made out of bales of hay.  Saturday I saw something I didn't expect - Armageddon.  Well, okay, it wasn't really Armageddon, but it looked strange enough to make me wonder.  It was an insanely bright day with the winter sky blanketed by cirrocumulus clouds, complete with herringbone patterns and puffy cotton balls, a long line of unbelievably intense blue sky was visible through an unzipped portion of clouds, the sun burned through the thin clouds making a huge white disc overhead, and there was a peculiar hole in the sheet of clouds with a haze inside veiling the entrance to heaven.  It was an awesome sight.













And of course, I must include my tweaked version...Armageddon

  2. Laura...thanks so much for stopping by and for the sweet comment! I love the whole process of creating images, from choosing the hike to post processing, so it makes me very happy when someone else gets some enjoyment from seeing them.

  4. Hi Lisa! I read on your store that you're new at Twitter and that you don't know what to do with it. Here's just one tip. I see you don't have 4 small buttons that are available in Blogger. They go under your posts-you can watch it in my blog. I think you enable them in Design> Posts. Everytime you post about a new Zazzle product on your blog you click that button and the link to your post will be published on Twitter feed allowing the people you followed and that are following you to see it. The good thing about it is that it shortens URL and leaves more space for you to right about your product. You should also add #Zazzle. Thats a tag. This isn't much. But hope it helps!
