This is the last of the mums I found in an overflow area where a greenhouse had been growing mums in a field. They are definitely on their way out but with the yellow trees I thought it was still pretty.

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.

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.
