currents flow through my skin
emotions strike deep within.
up one day, down the next
I'll stay true unlike the rest.
Never changing, loyal, and kind
I swear to be your electrical twind.

Haven't been out with the camera for a while as my number one is in for repair. Couldn't resist going down to the front last night with my spare camera for the free light show. The sheet lightening went on for about an hour, right over my hometown (Swansea) across the bay.
An intense electrical storm rolled over Kelowna, British Columbia last night. People were out with their cameras at the marina going crazy trying to capture the elusive bolt. It's all in the wrist!

Slider's Sunday
When we moved to Upstate, NY from New Mexico we drove across the US. One place we passed was the Wildorado Wind Ranch west of Amarillo, Texas.
Even after a relative success at Omoide, I still wanted a large scale dystopian shot, industrial sure, but with a hint of a futuristic look which is something the izakayas didn't really offer. I had no idea my ultimate opportunity would arrive in the form of a Yodobashi store.
Researching once I got back from Japan, apparently a lot of Yodobashis have large neon signs out front. The only one I was familiar with beforehand in Akihabara just didn't have that, so I had no reason to suspect THIS was waiting for me at the plaza in Shinjuku. Come to think of it, I actually didn't expect to come back with a lot of shots from Shinjuku, yet it's very clear now that this eclipses all the other Tokyo districts on my camera roll, maybe even combined. There's just something about it's dirtier nature that seemed so photogenic.
So in my previous Yodobashi Plaza post I foreshadowed this as my "much better shot". I browsed for a while waiting for the sky to get darker and it started raining. Finding a spot to put my tripod was a bit challenging and I constantly had to wipe my lens off (I had to move my umbrella everytime it was actually time to shoot so it took a couple drops). The sky wasn't dark enough it was still a deep purple, so in editing I went all in. Tried to give this photo powerful shadows, a black sky, and a dominating red/yellow color scheme.
When I say "cyberpunk" I don't think I got closer to that then this. A large sign from above and the branching out signs to either side on the bottom, along with the contrast of the white sign (the only part of this image I couldn't read, I know what the rest say). What would've been even more awesome is if I managed to get a rain streak in my shot considering I was shooting on a slow shutter, but it wasn't that profuse, so it didn't end up in my frame. I have several slightly different and/or vertical frames as well so there is a chance I'll revisit this shot in the future (that is, if we're not already in said future).

Todays challenge for the daily shoot was, Graffiti is something you can find almost anywhere. Make an interesting photograph of some graffiti and post it.
My knees were really playing up today and walkign was quite painful, so I only did a real short walk to find todays assignment, and only took two shots.
Neither of them very colorfulor artistic but I think they meet the Graffiti assignment
This one on a Electrical panel, and I see to be looking for shadows more this week as per the shot below
MY Knees are still not to good so not sure I will be sitting at the PC for to long tonight so sorry if I dont visit your streams tonight but will catch up tomorrow
Louvred doors to the electrical substation for a building, for easy access for maintenance engineers. Everything else seems to be also mounted on this wall - alarm bells, units, triggers. This is the wall to modern residential condos with a supermarket and cafes on the ground floor.
Here you are some electricity charge, above the mountains, due to a night thunderstorm.
Here are not clearly visible the lightnings, as shown in a previous shot of mine, titled "Lightning in the Mirror", but the electric charge in the cloud is evident ... and I find particularly evocative the general atmosphere that had arisen between the Dents d'Ambin (3.372 m) and the Roche d'Etache (3.083 m), France.
