A severe thunderstorm and tornado warning over Elbert County Colorado in the early morning hours of June 3rd, 2008 (1:15am to 1:45am)
None of us knows what might happen even the next minute,
yet still we go forward. . .
because we trust. . .
because we have Faith
The Clouds rolled in just as the light had started to die. The light was still dramatic enough and the clouds were sub-par but its what we learn while shooting that advances our landscapes. I'll take this as an experience and keep hunting for my perfect Edith Cavell Shot.
This is a lough up in the Wicklow hills in Ireland, the water was very still and it created a nice mirror effect. There were some ominous clouds heading towards us though.
The setting sun. Thought I missed it tonight but the clouds were not all the way down to the horizon allowing the sun to show through a small gap before setting. Settings for this photo are ISO 200 for 1/1000 sec with an aperture of 6.7 at 300mm
On to barnage. Actually, silage, seldom seeds, was usually dumped from an elevator, screw, conveyor or blower, into the top of a silo, thus the names. McIntosh was a dairying operation and that necessitated pasture, haying and storing whatever might work for winter cattle feed. I suppose that, because there have been some sprinkles recently, any contents could smell a bit gamey - extra protein? I thought that I might get an interesting composition from these elements if I could divine a title. The name was a slam-dunk if off subject but this is the title and the image..
The McIntosh/Lohr Agricultural Museum is under-utilized. It would be great if the kids could see some of the horse drawn farming implements in actual use. This is also a great place for a weekend stroll and a sandwich at a picnic table with the kids. I took advantage of this day near McIntosh Lake Park at the ag museum from where I can access the lake loop. The entire path loops around the lake and is 3.5 miles. It looks like the day might be cut short. Lake Shore Drive is in town while the far west side is just out of town. On that day, I was intent upon detail shots of gears and saw this on my stroll down to the lake.
We are now experiencing spring in as the land greens. Even Orange Man Boner is claiming that he is not a scientist; a reasonable claim for a drunk. I believe what he says; he doesn't even understand the effects of loads of alcohol on his human body! Recently we have been graced with dud skies again, so I am trying to take advantage of them as I can. We sent more tornadoes east, "Moore IS less!" Yesterday, served up more clouding and a promise of more 80-90s. We might be creeping up on 70s but they should be in August. See if you can detect the climate changes around your locale. Atacama desert is being flushed downstream.
