    First thing I thought when I looked at this was "Uh-oh! Tornado's coming!"

    It is rather foreboding. I wonder if that's what Millais thought too. XD

    I would really like to go sit under those trees and have them blowing over my head, while reading and watching a storm brew.

    brrr! It's so realistic looking. October, wind, standing near water=CHILLY! I can almost feel it. I want to hug myself against the breeze.
