I couldn’t help it. I had to post this image from last week’s ah-mazing sunrise after the storm. It kind of reminds of the Lion King with the colors and birds meets San Andreas with all the flooding on the right hand side of the image, except wayyy less dramatic.

PS. Today is my half birthday. Am I the only nerd who likes to celebrate their half birthdays? I feel like I get a pass since it only comes around every four years. CUPCAKES for everyone!

I went out yesterday not really know what to expect. The whole day had been foggy and rainy. At one point the sun came out. But that only lasted for 5 minutes before it got SUPER dark. The rain started pouring and I had kinda made up my mind that I was going to stay home. Twenty minutes later I looked out the window again and the rain had stopped. I went out and hoped to get some moody US Capitol shots and ended up with this. So when I say it was a crazy weather day yesterday, I ain’t lying!

Man that was an intense storm last night! There were several times where I thought my camera was going to fly away.

But the whole time I was out I was thinking of my friend, Don. He passed yesterday. A great photographer but an even better person. I’m so grateful to have known him and to be mentored by him. I remember how he’d always call me “kiddo” and the last time I saw him he told me how proud of me he was. He was the type of person where you’d always be smiling when you were around him. I miss him already. This image is for Don.
