Fingers in the Sky

Fingers of clouds caught rays of the rising sun to colorfully contrast with the soft, blue background. They rise where my spirit soars; not a day goes by that I don’t dream of the sky and what lies beyond. #clouds #sunrays #colorandcontrast #dreamsofthesky

Holed Up

Forget coming out of his shell, this tortoise refused to even come out of his burrow. At least it allowed us to approach without retreating out of view.
