I spent 2 days at the North Rim of Grand Canyon and it rained most of the time. I chased the lightning here for 3 hours and took over 1000 boltless photos under an umbrella during my endeavor. Trying to capture lightning without a trigger trap is a huge waste of time, but when your successful just once it makes it all the more rewarding. I tried several different setups using continuous shutter mode with long exposures and then switched to shorter exposures on slow shooting continuous mode and thought that I had failed. When I later reviewed my photos back at the campground I found that I had captured one photo with a strike included. I guess it was luck or just persistence that rewarded me. I also used a second camera to capture video of the storm and the awesome thunderstorm that accompanied the storm. I'm not sure if I will post any of the video but it was nice to have a personal record of the awesomeness of the storms the frequent the Grand Canyon.
If you have any questions about this photo or about photography in general, I will do my best to help, just post a comment or send me a Flickr mail and I will respond as quickly as possible.
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my photos, and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!! Have a great week ahead everybody!! :)
Please do me a favor and follow me on my other social sites found below:
Named from the similarity of their prominent proboscis that looks like the beak of a snipe. Adults can often be seen sitting on vegetation or on tree trunks waiting to catch and pounce on passing prey. Some species of snipe flies are hematophagous as adults and some are predatory of insects. Larvae develop as predators in the soil and wood detritus. Found in wet meadows, marshes and woodland margins. Can sometimes be know as the Down-Looker Fly as they have the habit of perching head-downward on tree trunks.
Robin [Erithacus rubecula]
This is Flash, the wee female robin...just getting ready to fly off.
She has been appearing at my feeders at The Pixies for months, now, and I noticed she had damaged her left wing, in March. She seems to be having no adverse effects, thank goodness. When I call her name, she appears for some special wee bird nuggets. I know she has been feeding youngsters but I haven’t seen them, yet...

European Robin [Erithacus rubecula]
This wee Robin has white flashes on each wing. I think this is quite rare as I’ve never seen one like it (even having trawled the University of Google). She is usually first to appear when I’m filling up the winter feed - the peanut butter mixture - and sings as she’s sitting waiting for the all clear... A lovely little soul.
Here, she’s sitting waiting in the rain. It’s a really dull and wet day! I hope she is going to have little baby robins with this amazing white flash.

(My Olympus died. Just DIED! I’m getting a replacement, hopefully, tomorrow...For now, I’m using this monstrous super-heavy Canon/Tamron combo...)

So, the season premiere of the Flash Season 3 sucked, but episode two gives me a bit more hope that this will be different from Arrow Season 3. But, we can only hope.

What did you guys think of the two recent episodes?
Flash, one of our resident male Anna's Hummingbirds, sipping nectar. His flower of choice is our Mystic Spires Salvia flowers. Photo taken in our backyard in Camas, Washington.
The little kinglet, quick and bright,
A golden flash, then out of sight.
Hidden within the leafy green,
The smallest crown that I have seen.
It took some patience to get this photo! Watching this hyperactive golden-crowned kinglet bouncing through the bushes was a real challenge. But the reward was this shot, capturing a rare moment where its fiery orange and yellow crown was visible, perfectly framed by the warm colors of the autumn foliage. It's a reminder that good things come to those who wait—especially when photographing these tiny, fast-moving birds.
Thank you for visiting. As always, your views, faves and comments are very much appreciated!
An early evening thunderstorm moves over Longmont Colorado. Oddly several planes were flying through the storm, resembling small meteor streaks here. This storm occurred a week before my previous lightning/ t-storm post.

Another "not a moose" photo from our latest moose safari.
Moose tend to do most of their feeding during early mornings and late evenings. As the later morning sun warms things up, they tend to retreat to deep shade where they nap and ruminate. That's my que to seek other wildlife photo ops. So we head to nearby Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge. By mid-August, many migrating birds have left the refuge, heading to their wintering territories. But this baker's dozen White-faced Ibis flock had yet to depart. This is actually part of a larger flock of about 40 birds.
These birds were pretty far away, and this is a pretty big crop, but I like the flash of iridescent color on some of their wings.
After a year of it sitting on my shelf I decided to watch a few tutorials and do some flash photography practices
A hood used for light painting. This small black metal hood is attached to the end of a tiny Q flashlight. This tool created by Harold Ross is used for targeting light to a certain area when LIGHT PAINTING an object or scene.

If you see the auroras pulsate and flash across the sky and your neck is stiff and sore, then you know you've had an exceptional night under the stars.

After the sun set the sky was still bright and the foreground trees were brightened by the street light in the park..I experimented and used flash to hightlight them further.. Sept. 16 on explore @223
Flash off camera fired using ebay wizzards. Flash is placed to the left, with a dish in the sink with the tap dripping.
And thank you my sweet friends for all the tricks and tips that you give me !! Love you all ♥ and specially Natsu who helped me started... ♥
On my morning walk today I was enjoying the crisp clear air and colorful Sycamore leaves when a Flicker flew by me flashing his brilliant salmon colored wings. What a delight!
The river picks up the light and reflections from that lovely sky, the sun casting a flash of light through the trees as it slowly sinks behind the far hills.
My longish exposure smooths the river surface to enhance the reflections, you can make out the sun on the river and the ruffled surface in places where debris was floating by.
Lowena update, She took a turn for the worse on Saturday with another visit to the vet.and yet another visit this morning.
The silly dog ate something that made here so ill plus she had an ear infection, fortunately she was well enough for us to make the long drive there and back to Bristol, three hundred miles there and back was a long day for all of us but we got a lot sorted with Jane`s aunts affairs and hopefully we will not have to go again.
Now the washing machine has decided it has a blockedge which I cannot sort so an engineer has come and taken it apart to sort it, arghhhhh lol
I used to have a pair of Dunlop Green Flash. I used to go to school with my shoes and once round the corner get my green flashes on, rebel eh!
Collage formado por varias fotos de agua con flashes de colores, quizás habria sido mejor una a una, bueno, con paciencia lo háré
R766 heads along the straight towards Douglas Park, with a well-timed flash in the fire pan from the rotary burner, with 9S94 from Moss Vale to Central.

Interrupting the street portrait series in light of a Tsunami Warning. The monster 8.8 earthquake in Chile has apparently generated a Tsunami that we will experience, to some degree in Malibu! Hawaii is apparently going to get the worst of it.
This shot was taken moments ago from my deck, which hopefully will still exist by the end of the day.
Let's pray for the Chileans.
