200th Blog

30 days of images, day 25.  And, my 200th blog.

I was afraid today would be a wash-out because it started out dreary and raining.  But oh, the wonderful clouds that rolled in after the rain blew away!  I actually got several good cloud shots today.  It was a beautiful evening and I went for a drive to find something interesting for my 200th blog.

For me, the clouds were interesting enough, but I found several other fun things to shoot as well.  I think I gave my friend whiplash as I suddenly would see something interesting and whip the truck in that direction.  Such was the case for today's image.  I saw this military helicopter suspended in mid-air in a veterans park and had to stop.  Combining silhouette, clouds, and a sunset--a perfect end to a perfect evening.

I dedicate today's blog to everyone who has, is, or will be serving in the military.

Coming in for a Landing

30 days of images, day 24.  It almost looks like a star coming in for a landing.  I love timed exposures.

Rush Hour Opportunities

30 days of images, day 23.  An iPhone grab shot while waiting in line to get onto I-94.

Spring Opener

30 days of images, day 22.  The flower beds in front of the house get radiant heat from the sun reflecting off the house.  A lot of times my tulips and irises are done blooming before neighboring plants even think about blooming.  It's cold, drizzly, and slightly windy this evening.  I think I saw these early bloomers shivering.

Techie Corner
The sun had already set and I wasn't using flash, so I had to use ISO 1600 to catch these beauties. I like the extra graininess.
