You should expect more sunflower images soon. I plan on going back at least one more time because the first time was too short. Love everything about it minus the mosquitos. I could definietly do without them.

I had no idea it was suppose to storm on Saturday, but all of the sudden the clouds came rolling in. Good thing I didn’t have any plans for around sunset time so I was able to go out and shoot. It was a lucky surprise to see the rainbow, but I didn’t even see the beginning of the second rainbow until I brought the images up onto my computer. So cool to see what the camera picks up and not your eyes.
We only had 20 minutes of shooting time before the rain rushed us out. I’m just glad we had those 20 minutes. The clouds and sky were perfect!
Love summer storms. They just seem to be more dramatic than any other season. Am I right? Is it because of the warmer air? I don’t know but they’re awesome. Not to self: No white tshirts when out shooting dramatic clouds. That never ends well.
I was on my way home when I was passing by the Iwo Jima memorial. It was pouring but I figured I’d wait around to see what would happen. Luckily as soon as I arrived, there was a break in the rain. I ran as fast as I could and grabbed a few shots. I was super lucky that one of them got this little lightning strike. I don’t know which is more surprising, the fact that this was hand held or that I barely got wet trying to get it. Both are a win to me 🙂
YAY for nice days and no more rain! I was taking shelter in the Lincoln Memorial right as the rain stopped and was greeted by beautiful clouds like this.
