51/365
One thing about my work schedule that I am NOT liking, is that my boss has been putting me on the schedule for open (4:14AM) 4 days a week! I should be grateful because Saturday, I get to sleep in and be at work at 4:45am! After doing that for 4 days in a row, I get pretty tired when I get home on Saturday! Pretty tired is not the word, I HIT A WALL! This week has been long and hard! But, I knew that going out tonight was not going to be an option, and I knew that I still wanted my 365, so I took it on my way to work this morning. When I left home, it was raining, but I live far from work, and there was time to get to a no rain spot. Then again, when I got there to this spot, it started to rain while I was exposed. SO, I ran to the back of my car and got my $5 Walmart umbrella. (SO grateful I bought one) Saw my first shot, rain drops on the lens! DARN, I knew I was early, but doing an additional 3+ minute exposure was not what I had in mind. But, I did it any way. I even adjusted the AV, the first was just a bit intense. By time the second shot was done, the rain was coming down pretty hard. This is the second shot, out of two for the entire day. When I got home, I took a nap while my man and child went food shopping.
If you look TOO close at my shots, the grany look at the bottom, in the black portion, was from where I wiped off the rain drops off the lens, and it left some wetness still. At least it was in the black.
Tomorrow off to the PMA2010, I am VERY grateful for a chance to go, and hopefully sometime during the day, I will meet a flickr friend who will be running around DIsneyland. There may or may not be a sunset involved, but I will get a light trail if all else fails. :) I do love a good light trail.
