When a Viking appeared in the clouds at sunset, it occurred to me, maybe he was looking down, reminiscent for the waterfront experience…the motivation for setting sail, one of  exploration.  Motivation, similar to perhaps our own when heading out on to the water.  

As legend has it, they made their way to North America sometime circa 700-1100 AD,  navigating by the sun and the stars.  When clouds obscured the view a device, a Sun Stone (cool), was used.

For the “polarization of the skylight”, a crystal, was held to the sky as a window to the way on the water. 

The lens, the “skylight” of the day captures, the Viking in the clouds…part of the ever-changing view…and spark for imagination…luvin life on the lake…usny.
