A not so Stormy: Stormy Lake

          Hello and welcome to my third #wetwednesday Post. Some of my followers may recognize this lake, It is north of Nikiski, Alaska on the road to Captain Cook Park, Stormy Lake. Sometimes even mother nature takes a rest, as you can see in these two similar views of Stormy Lake. This is a somewhat rare occasion for Stormy Lake because it has it's name for a reason, Storms like to build over it, and the lake is almost always choppy, rarely is it flat calm. On this day 9-11-18 it was taking a break and being rather respectful almost as if it was having a moment of silence.

          Unlike most days of late, this was a very nice day, nice blue sky, some clean white clouds to add character to the sky, instead of the washed out white overcast days we have been having. The big plus was no wind.

          I could not decide which one I liked more than the other so I thought why not just post them both, so I did.

The day before our trip to Stormy lake we took a drive to the south and one of the stops was Clam Gulch beach during low tide. I did post a similar image as this one, but that was taken with the macro lens on so now with the 35mm lens I thought I would fix that slight goof and show a cropped view or Mount Redoubt. It was one of those days that would have had Howard Hughes just screaming where are my clouds.

          I think we will finish this wet wednesday out with one of the wettest creatures I could think of and that was easily available to take a picture of.

          I hope you all enjoyed the water works for this weeks wetwednesday tag. I hope to bring more water next week. Maybe a return to last winter just before this winter. All images were taken by me, and they have all been cropped and resized.

You sure do live in beautiful surroundings. All the leaves here are beginning to yellow. Soon they will be red and orange as well. Then the snows will come.
Looking at the platform today feels like those barren trees. Everyone is so unhappy.
I feel like writing a positive post to counter some of the crazy, but not sure I can post yet lol
I have 17 comments according to Steemed so I am at least going to use those.
I find it rather ironic that I left my character falling into a transporter. At least one thing turned out perfect.

It will all soon be covered in white, but that can be rather vibrant looking also. I just do not like the cold that much, but tried the heat, and liked that even less. Just hoping they do not do another disaster of an update in the winter, since I will be on steem a little bit more.
