Colors!!!

Fall just pops with colors, red, orange, yellow, still green grass, and a sky that just has a brilliant blue.  Fall= a happy me.:)

Hello Fall

Crazy HDR

I've been playing more with my HDR program with overlaying pictures that are not the same.  There have been some pretty crazy ones, but at the same time, pretty cool.

Misty Mornings

Misty mornings are so majestic and breathtaking, not to mention a joy to photographic. : )

Let it Strike....

I was one happy photographer when a storm rolled through and I saw lightning.  I was basically bouncing with delight as I captured some pretty cool strikes.  It was thrilling, and slightly scary since I was out on the deck, with no roof overhead..... I admit, I am a little bit of a daredevil. ; D

Morning Cuteness

Shiloh was just so adorable yesterday morning in the beautiful sunrise light.  I had to drag myself outside earlier than I usually like, but the picture was worth it.  ; ) 

Spring Sunset

Wow, it's been a while since I posted.  I've been taking pictures, so I have quite a bit to blog.  ; )  Here is a sunset I shot a few weeks ago.

Rainy Day

Last week I sat out on my porch and shot pictures as I watched the rain fall.  It was peaceful and relaxing.  I got some fun shots, sometimes shooting with a small aperture and a slow shutter speed while zooming.  Some are a little different, but I decided I like them. ; D

Signs of Spring

I am thoroughly delighted that spring is here.  Flowers are blooming, bees buzzing, birds singing, calves kicking and playing in pastures without a care in the world, and new life is just flourishing everywhere.  It's delightful and encouraging to observe all this after a gray and dull winter.   Here are some recent (mostly macro) pictures I've taken of the happy spring colors.  ; D

Lightning+Taking Pictures=Doubts of Sanity

Lightning is truly awesome.  It's powerful, beautiful and thoroughly intimidating when you are standing in the middle of an open field.  ; )  Most of the time I try to stay undercover while shooting it, but once in a while to get the best shot I have to... Umm... shove away some commonsense,  while trying not to think about getting struck and step out into the storm. ; )    And some people think being a photographer is boring.... ; D

Oh yeah, I was intimidated by this bolt, but I got the picture! : D
