Do you ever have trouble deciding what to share next? Tonight I've changed my mind about five times, even wrote descriptions, but just wasn't feeling it with any of those.
Pulled off the highway to take this picture last Monday, back on the road of course with my first load after a few days home time.
Anyway, polished it up in Lightroom tonight and pretty happy with the results.
I think this location is between Fillmore and Beaver Utah, somewhere down in that area for sure.
We walked up to Gellibrand Hill, close to home to try to catch a sunset. It wasn't spectacular, but the company was. Andrew, Adrienne, Colin, red, red wine and a box of cheezels. on a warm autumn evening. Does it get much better?
Will be away from the computer for a couple of days so I decided to post this Fence Friday image a little early. An HDR image created with HDR Efex Pro 2.
A brave jogger heads straight into the oncoming storm.
I can see some similarities between obsessive runners and obsessive photographers!
The day is ending on a pretty Iowa farmstead. An HDR image to try to keep detail in both the sky and the foreground.

Duirinish Stone was erected on the 24th June 2000 to celebrate the new millennium. Set in a concrete base, it stands approximately 5m high and was erected by hand.

Looking over the lakes at Llynnau Cregennen west Wales.
Llynnau Cregennen are owned by the National Trust and are located on the northern slopes of Cadair Idris. The larger lake has an area of 27 acres and the smaller lake has an area of 13 acres and they are used for angling.
I picked up wine in San Miguel, and Santa Maria, California the other day for a short run to Los Angeles. Tonight in Ashland, Oregon and on to Portland tomorrow. Anyway, this picture was taken while my trailer was being loaded at the Castoro Cellars Winery in San Miguel. Getting into and out of the winery had me a little concerned, the road was paved, but very narrow and I worried about trucks coming from the other direction and meeting on a curve. Somebody would have to backup, the only was to get past each other would be on a straight part of the road.
Got a few interesting pictures while in the area. Great clouds this day.
A tree bent under the strain of constant wind while the turquoise waters shift under the constant play of shadow and light.

A few weeks ago, the sky was like this from one horizon to the other. Nature's brushstrokes on a huge canvas!
Happy Nice Wonderful Clouds Tuesday!

This is me sending you all the love and strength from Down Under, across the vast open spaces, deserts, forests and our gorgeous oceans that we love so much.
Kangaroo is our iconic Australian animal of course.

"Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
And you sang
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you"

I felt abit ruderless with my images over the weekend with the famous FFF plus. I couldn't find my anchor. So I just had a play with some of my images instead.
For a short spell, our entire sky was covered in these amazing delicate wisps of cloud. Five minutes later it had disappeared totally! It was one of those rare occasions where I wished for a much wider angle lens to fit it all in - this was a 24mm lens (even though the lens data shows 8.8mm, it is the 35mm equivalent for the cropped sensor used in the Sony RX10m4).

First time I've seen railroad tracks bisect an intersection like this.

Whitby Abbey was a 7th-century Christian monastery that later became a Benedictine abbey. The abbey church was situated overlooking the North Sea on the East Cliff above Whitby in North Yorkshire, England, a centre of the medieval Northumbrian kingdom. The abbey and its possessions were confiscated by the crown under Henry VIII during the Dissolution of the Monasteries between 1536 and 1545.
Since that time, the ruins of the abbey have continued to be used by sailors as a landmark at the headland. Since the 20th century, the substantial ruins of the church have been declared a Grade I Listed building and are in the care of English Heritage; the site museum is housed in Cholmley House.
En-route from Castlerigg Stone Circle to Derwnt Water, looking towards Thirlmere. I think there's a chance of rain.
Another gloriously peaceful start to the new day on the Murray River in Mannum.

A very well cared for family farm with many original outbuildings in excellent condition. I seldom plan very far ahead but I saw this earlier in the day and returned in the evening. I sat in my truck on a side road for nearly an hour waiting for the light to get just right.
Taken at a place called Benbow Pond in Cowdray Park. It was my luck to be there at the right time to get the moon where it is. I turned up about 20 minutes earlier just taking Autumn shots when I noticed the moon down low and realised that if I hung around I could get it exactly where it is. I was also lucky with the sky as we had an amazing sunset, the first in a long time. This was behind me but it made the clouds beautiful pink.

Local farmers working into the evening to finish harvesting this soybean field. Although you can't tell from this view, they had just had a breakdown and several workers were standing alongside the Gleaner combine trying to solve the problem. When I passed by the next day the field was completely done so they must have solved the problem and perhaps worked late into the night to finish.
Adventure on the Upper Kananaskis lake, I spent a whole morning walking around the lake seeing things I would never see in summer! This point contains a historic chimney you can see it in rusty tones in the trees. A log cabin with the fireplace built for G Gaherty a Calgary Power president is the reason for for the Chimney, He built the Dam that raised the lake and destroyed the cabin!
A storm is building in the background, but the building in the foreground catching the late afternoon sun is the old customs house in Robe, South Australia.
This is another pano from the group of five trees at Raitschin - from a little different position. I like the cereals field in the foreground, which gives some smooth part to the image in contrast to the HDR processing.
This pano was stitched from 6 HDR images, each processed from 5 different exposures.

Woke up Wednesday in Winnemucca, NV. Was ready to head out, the morning was cold, but very beautiful. Then I thought, why I'm I taking off without playing first. Grabbed my camera walked out behind my trailer a little ways, and began to play. Made my delivery in Hermiston OR that evening, picked up my current load in Pasco, WA this morning and heading to Topeka Kansas. Fingers crossed for good weather, and a few places along the way to... well, play of course.
