The right place and the right time!!!!

 As dawn was breaking, and I was standing on the veranda of our room at the Glenora Inn, I had a feeling that I needed to hang out longer. The sunrise over the hills on the eastern side of Seneca Lake was making a promise.   Watch!  Stay! Enjoy the show!

The clouds were so different.  They were forming on the lake, drifting upward and appearing to be on a collision course with the Inn. Then the lake started to transform. The water soon was coated with a layer of clouds which really looked like the lake was frozen and the snow was dancing along its surface.  In reality, the clouds were dancing along the surface and rising up into the sky!

 

I knew that the quality of my shots was going to suffer because I was shooting directly into the sun .... but it didn't stop my finger from clicking away ....

 

                                .... and, watching the magical show unveiling itself.   Watch those clouds from the lake up to the distinctive formations.

                   Ahhhhhhhhhh .... there it is!  This is what I was waiting for!!   A funnel cloud!!!!

It only lasted but a few minutes .... but, I was in the right place at the right time.  I didn't even complain that my coffee got cold.
