Beading Nicely

rain drops on hood

It has been a little while since we had rain around here and we could sure use some! This Shot of my Jeep Hood was taken a few weeks ago when we had a spell of rainy weather. This particular day was a fine misting rain which formed drops of every size on my polished and protected vehicle.

Local Produce Stand

farm stand

This local farm produce stand sells fruits and vegetables and other delicious treats from spring till fall. Right now they are stocked with all kinds of fall decor. My favorites throughout the year include Sweet Corn, Peaches, Strawberries, Watermelon and on and on.

An Ocean of People

Not my typical posting but this is a local fair that I shot with a longer lens and a 4 second shutter speed. The funny thing is the few times I have done this, it seems there is always at least one person who is looking directly at me. In this shot there were a couple people who stood fairly still for 4 seconds and right in the mass of people there is one lady beside the big guy in the white shirt who stood fairly still and is looking at me! I am perhaps almost a football field away too.

Patience Tested

I shot this Aurora this past week mainly because a friend was without his car so I offered to take him to this lake. We were there about a half hour with nothing to speak of and seconds before I was going back to my vehicle to relax while he persisted, he suddenly blurts out “look to your left” and sure enough this color started to explode across the sky and reflect in the lake.
