Rainy Night

A couple nights ago, the temp was 38°f and the color weather radar showed a big green & yellow blob moving across the state. I drove over to restaurant row and found one with bright red lights. These are raindrops on the windshield.

Bradford Pears

Along the edge of our parking lot at work is a log row of Bradford Pear trees. They are beautiful in the spring and fall. When the tiny petals fall off it kind looks like snow. The telephoto I used here is an OK substitute for a macro. One day I’ll get real one.

Reedy River Run 2

I like the colors & the all the bouncing heads. Am I taking the motion blur thing too far?

Today’s race provided lots of opportunities for people watching, but there were many feet hitting the pavement.

Half court

Taking shots of the players taking shots was very challenging. Many times they’d throw, I’d shoot, and the ball would be out of the frame. I have a new appreciation for sports photographers.
