This week we have a submission from Bryan Schmidt of wind spirits from a recent storm here in the Fox River Valley, in which Crystal Life has its storefront in Geneva.

In Bryan’s words: The picture was taken Friday, June 29, 2012, 10:52 a.m. I was looking Northwest, standing at the corner of Fourth and Hamilton Streets in Geneva. I was just watching the storm clouds roll in, before the rain started to fall. I saw what I thought looked like a nose and mouth, blowing the wind in the clouds. I ran inside to grab my phone, hoping the clouds hadn’t shifted too much, making the face disappear. When I got back outside, and got my camera on, I snapped a couple of pictures. The face I saw was still there! I consider this to be my first time “seeing” a nature spirit.

 I actually spot more than one face in Bryan’s photo – I count at least four, how many do you see?
