Falling into the marketing trap, I’m entering a contest for a digital camera (since I think I could use a newer one), and posting a picture taken from my living room window in Yorkton, Saskatchewan.

I took it because the sky was unlike any I’d seen before. It was hailing only minutes earlier.

You may have noticed the Fuel My Blog button on the side of my blog recently. It’s just a vote button for a blog popularity contest site. So far I have had about 40 votes, and just a handful of visitors from Fuel My Blog.

My My! What a wonderful picture. I can hardly believe…. Did you edit it or something? Yorkton, Saskatchewan….. near Romania?

It’s completely natural Allan. Saskatchewan is a province in western Canada.

It’s not just my eye Rosie, I have a camera and I’m not afraid to use it… often, repeatedly, and frequently :-)

Nicole, how about an extra hamburger at the SaskBlogs BBQ ;-) Where’s the beef?

Corrin, I can’t fight off an urban assault (no skyscrapers within a two hour drive), so hopefully my nature picture can bring in the votes :-)

This is a lovely photo - I noticed it when I uploaded mine. It reminds me of a bushfire at sunset.

Thanks Kitty. It did look like a fire.

Very nice photo. I like the stark contrast of the tree and the sky beyond.
