 "Angel in the Clouds" by Robert Swetz (Vegas Bob) 12-31-2009

 With the end of 2009 and entering the "New Year" of 2010 I came across this Angel floating in the Clouds at Mount Charleston Nevada. Mount Charleston is only a 45 minute from Las Vegas and it is fun area to ski and play in the snow.

 Do I believe in Angels? Well of course I do and I believe this one will be looking over Robert Swetz (Vegas Bob) coming into the "New Year"

 I have always been intrigued with it comes to Sunsets/ Sunrises and the effects the sun light can play with photography, and by looking at this photograph you can see why.

 I would like everyone at the Activerain network to have a safe and "Happy New Year" and I hope all of you have a Angel looking over your shoulders coming into the "New Year"

 Have a Wonderful Safe Holiday.

 Everyone that stopped by for a comment I really want to thank all of you. When I first came across this photograph in the many that I shot I thought to myself what a beautiful display of light captured through the lens of a camera. And to think it was done without a star filter amazes me.

There are filters for cameras that photographers can purchase to get photos like this, but it would be a little different and the rays of light would have more of a rainbow color.

But this photo is straight camera, no filter and no trip photography!

Robert, VERY COOL!  I also believe in angels.  I don't like driving and often pray to my heavenly Father that he would surround me by his angels. Since I have started doing that I have less accidents and a sense of peace that I never had before.

Bob, What an awesome photo. I thnk it should be featured but I don't have the power to make it so. But then I guess you do! Thanks for sharing and I can't believe there were no filters used. You are correct it would have more rainbow colors if you had used a star filter.
