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!! :)

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...

Lightning on the 10th of July, in Poole Bay Dorset
I tried using my 70-200L as it was on the camera, but it was a bit too long (too small a fov) but I got lucky with this one I pointed it to the last flash and got this.
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...)

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!
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.
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.
The Havannah Flashes are fishing ponds in the Sankey Valley Park, between St Helens and Newton-le-Willows in Merseyside.

Reavieling this now since I have some struggle with making the helmet and are very busy with studies so I don't have that much time to work on him a.t.m.
After a year of it sitting on my shelf I decided to watch a few tutorials and do some flash photography practices

This took longer to set up then to photograph. If you do have ago at this, don't forget to add water or the refraction will not work.
Refraction is the change in direction of wave propagation due to a change in its
transmission medium, in this case water.

Another shot from last session with Alessandra, this time featuring an outlandish look with the aid of coloured lighting.
Strobist info: primary blue gelled sb700 shot through rapid box octa xl as fill. Sangria coloured rim light on a stripbox, and a tiny Apollo pushed in close with a cerulean blue gelled flash for key.
Shot with a Nikon D700 and the Nikkor 24-70mm f2.8 lens.
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.

Flash off camera fired using ebay wizzards. Flash is placed to the left, with a dish in the sink with the tap dripping.
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
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.
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!
