Took the new Olympus OM-D E-M1 out for a little storm chase this evening. No luck with sever weather but definitely had some great cloudscapes.
This was made using the HDR bracketing mode in the camera, handheld, 5 exposures at +/- 2 EV each....jpgs. LOL.

Well ... 2 days ago I posted some colorful flowers and said "hopefully this will coax Spring to Spring!"
Well, today the temp hit the mid 50s in Grand Rapids, we got plenty of sunshine, and I drove around town with the top down again!
So I figure ... more flowers, more warm temperatures!
Hey ... can't hurt, right? ;-)
BTW, this is from the Holland, MI Tulip festival a few years ago.
Week#8
I wanted something because i do alot of black n white. So i took a few of a little lake that runs in town. I challenged the DOF to come up with something that hopefully has me stand out.
Another rolling field and big sky near Torreneiri. Not many poppies but plenty of these wild red flowers everywhere.
My dreams are now as nightmares,
as I wander through and through,
My mind is now corrupted,
as I wander through the new,
New doors have opened to me,
and I've paused then to step in,
wondering, and puzzling,
at all that lies within,
I step then through the blackness
of the open portal there,
and I step out into wonder,
that I never then could share,
I meet then a real new sight,
as the colors swirl by,
I see a field,a whole new world,
and I step forth now, but nigh!
What are these things that dwell here,
oh black creatures of the night,
these skeletons and wanderers,
who blunder in the blight.
A road now falls before me,
going down into the field,
I see bright blooms around me,
and I hope they are my shield,
A shield now from the danger,
that now dwells within my mind,
among the red, and white, and pink,
I know not what I'll find.
Things rise up from the ocean;
sea of Red, and pink, and black,
and I wander on the road there,
looking now for what I lack,
my dreams have drawn me to here,
to this field ever bright,
And carry ever onward,
though my mind's not always right.
I walk now through the meadow,
and I wonder what it means
to ever, ever wander,
in this endless Field of Dreams.
Created for TMI group's challenge, "In the Style of Monet, Gaugin or Rousseau".
A vast field of Purple Loose-Strife, gorgeous to look at but the bane of many a farmer's life. This highly aggressive and rapidly growing weed is spreading like wildfire on wetlands and fields, choking out everything else around it, as beautiful as it is.
All that aside I thought they made for beautiful imagery and made the most of it.

I've been off Flickr for a long time; longer than the last time. I will be slowly catching up with the photo streams of friends and contacts who I have had the pleasure of meeting online and offline. It got to the point where I had to make a choice between shooting, processing photos or doing Flickr. I've also been spending a lot more time looking at photo books and individual photography (and photographer) websites. My new tactic is to set a time limit on how long I'm on Flickr, that probably won't work but it's worth a shot (no pun intended).
That said, I think posting more frequently will help. So at least for the rest of the year I will try to post at least one photo daily. Time will tell if this succeeds.

Looks like a badly stunted crop to me. After weeks of drought it’s not really surprising.
I took this last week, on a very rare day when it wasn't raining. I've not really done many sunsets, so this was all trial and error. It's actually a HDR from 3 exposures, something I very rarely do either.
Only thing i'm not happy about is the banding around the sun, which is called the fried egg effect from some forums i've been reading. Not really sure how you avoid it, but this will have to do for the time being. Hope you like it.
This image from Sentinel-2A shows how Saudi Arabia’s desert is being used for agriculture. The circles come from a central-pivot irrigation system, where the long water pipe rotates around a well at the centre.

Ken & I witnessed a great phenomena on our way home! The little patch of mown ground looked like leftover cotton, or maybe trash, maybe white pelican feathers? I got out to take a closer look and discovered it was a rare form of frost! Frost feathers, or frost flowers- something we have NEVER seen before, and apparently requiring JUST the right conditions! It was like cotton candy/candy floss, scattered along the side of the road!
