Mentor Headlands Beach & State Park

Living so close to Mentor Headlands Beach and State Park, I visit there several times a year. The dunes area is famous for its bird watching and the Fairport Harbor West breakwater lighthouse is an interesting subject for photographs.  Yesterday, the sky took the center stage, with some amazing cirrus clouds against a backdrop of a crisp blue sky which made for some great photos. Enjoy!

Finally – Rain! - And Interesting Clouds

It’s been very dry here in northeast Ohio and it seems like weeks since we had any significant rain.  Finally a cool front moved in this morning and with it brought a heavy rain, along with an interesting cloud formation as the storm approached. Here’s a photo.  (Click on the image for a larger view.)

A Storm Front Moves In

Here is a photo of an approaching line of thunderstorms that dropped some much needed rain over northeast Ohio. This photo was taken in Northfield, Ohio, looking northwest.  (Click on image for a larger view.)
