Belwood/ Sky Watch

Belwood Lake Conservation Area last night

My husband and I took a road trip to Fergus and Elora, Ontario yesterday and on the way back stopped at the Belwood Lake Conservation Area just before sunset.  When I took this shot, I was on the path over the dam that creates the lake on the Grand River.

    I do love it when the sun gathers its wonders around itself instead of emblazoning the whole sky.
    The halo banda from gold to red show up so well with the diffusing clouds behind.

    Have yourself a grand Halloween weekend, who knows, you may meet a wee ghostie.
