Prairie Barn and Sky – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.
It was a beautiful summer day when the heavens were opening up as they crossed the prairies. I have adored this barn as it seems to be perfection to me. I also love the perplexity in the contrast of the dark blue clouds versus the white fluffy clouds. They seem to be combining into what might be a great prairie storm coming in its midst. I love that you can see the direction of the weather pattern as it crosses the fields.
With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and with my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.

In this location, we were surrounded by weather systems. To the east, north, south and west of us, were patterns of clouds and rain. We came in and out of the downpour.
This is a photograph of a barn in the rural municipality of Morris, Manitoba. It is south of Winnipeg. I like the dramatic sky in the background.

Stormy Skies
This is a photograph of a storm heading our way as we were driving. It was incredibly magnificent in its setting. It was swirling with the force of God’s breath. In it, you can see many features in the layers of light and dark blue and white skies.
It is exactly as it was seen but to me, it looks as if is a painting made in the Heavens. It is dramatic and expansive.

This is a photograph of a John Deere Harvester. It is famous for its green and yellow equipment. The usual time for combining and taking the crops off the field is in the fall in the Canadian Prairies from late August to late September.
I took this photograph in the farming area north of Winnipeg in the Interlake near Arborg, Manitoba. I like the way there is golden wheat and the brooding sky. I also appreciate the way technological development has created a huge machine that does what used to take many man-hours for people to toil over. We are making progress with our human ingenuity.

I took this photograph of this beautiful flower both at its bud stage up top and in full bloom below. It is like living on this Earth, end of life is happening for some while birth and new life is happening for some. Others in various stages of the in-between life. I like the contrast in stages. There is spiritual meaning in this photograph.

I love nature in all its forms. I like the wild grass that you particularly find in the prairies. This has a dandelion in the foreground and wild grass in the background. I have added some textures and filters to make it more interesting.

Whether you are going north, south, east or west in the prairies, you will see an hawk on a post of a farmer’s field. It is actually a hard picture to get because as you slow down in your car, the hawk takes off.
Interesting information from Wikipedia include, “Hawks, like most birds, are tetrachromats having four types of colour receptors in the eye. These give hawks the ability to perceive not only the visible range but also ultraviolet light. Other adaptations allow for the detection of polarized light or magnetic fields.”

On a dark, gloomy day I came across an old water pump beside an old relic of a building. It is still there despite having been abandoned a long time ago. I found it while driving in the Interlake Region of Manitoba, Canada.
