Description
Beautiful fluffy clouds over Lake Ontario, Canada.
Lake Ontario is one of the five Great Lakes of North America. It is bounded on the north and southwest by the Canadian province of Ontario, and on the south and east by the American state of New York.
Ontario, or 'beautiful great lake' derives its name from the Iroquois / Haudenosaunee first nation which inhabited the area around the lake until about 1700. The lake was a border between the Huron and their vassals and the Iroquois Confederacy in pre-European times. In the 1600s, the Iroquois drove out the Huron from southern Ontario and settled the northern shores of Lake Ontario. When the Iroquois withdrew and the Anishnabeg / Ojibwa / Mississaugas moved in from the north to southern Ontario, they retained the Iroquois name.

Thank you Tony! The clouds rolled in so fast and quickly moved on. I am pleased if you wish to use this image for reference material.

That's funny but quite the ultimate compliment! I'm so glad you like this image. Now if I had one of those "large format cameras" perhaps this image would be in IKEA! lol

Barbara McMahon replied:
Thank you dear Michel for your lovely complement. One moment the sky was clear and then these wonderful clouds rolled in. It was quiet, very warm, peaceful and yes, a Zen-like moment.

Thank you Michel for taking the time to comment. I am so fortunate to live within 1/2 hour of two of the Great Lakes of Ontario.
