Eye in the sky

“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.” --Mother Teresa



***I took this picture today (shocker, I took pictures of clouds?!?) anyway..a storm had just passed, and the sky was clearning up which made the sky really interesting. I was driving (again...a shocker) and snapped this really quick. Later this evening as I was looking through my mini photoshoot, I saw this picture and discovered what looks like an eye looking down on me. I realize it's just how the clouds are formed, but let me tell you, I've stared at this picture all night and just don't know what to make of it. What is the eye trying to tell me?

My week-o-adventures

Oh it's been quite a busy, but exciting photography week.  I had several adventures, so here are some pics.

On Tuesday, it was beautiful out so I decided to go for a walk along Sligo Creek.  Here are some highlights:





















creepy duck!  I think he's had one ride too many






sitting on a rock, reflecting...





I realize they tend to all look the same after awhile.  You can catch them all on my flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/msheathernoel/

Wednesday, I had an outing with work at Dave & Busters. 









Love Dave & Busters!  I won around 600 tickets, whoohoo!

Saturday, I went to Busch Gardens and had so much fun!

weird one to lead with, yes...but I love it.  This little angel was in a Christmas Shop in the Germany section.


also in the Christmas section!

I rarely get a serious picture!


We were at Busch Gardens for a school trip with Jason & his high school choir.  They got these cute t-shirts made, and I love the names on the back.


We dared Dan to get in the egg...he did it


proud moment in the egg.  possibly contemplating how he will re-emerge from the egg.  He is NO Lady Gaga!


Jason is attempting to make it look as though he has birthed Dan's Lady Gaga egg...that message really isn't conveyed here.


Sunday...a day to relax...and cut coupons.  Here is Dolce helping me
