A peaceful day under stormy skies

Time for Thought

       Winds passed through Marquette on a slightly stormy day, driving the clouds to move through the sky at a fair pace. Overcast conditions provide the opportunity to photograph difficult scenes, the lighting is soft, so the exposure is relativity strait forward. This type of lighting also typically brings out the cooler hues, giving the scene a sense of strong and deep emotions.
