A Surprise View

This one might be a stretch for a sunset - it was about 8pm, so the sun was technically on it's downward decent...

Anyway, this was the view we had as we neared the small and rather quaint town where my in-laws live. I took this out the dirty car window, going 70mph. It was a pleasant surprise to see this shot when I brought it up on my computer. I love the silhouette of the silo and the one lone bird sitting on the power lines, as well as the subtle rays of sunlight.


           

Sky Watch Friday

This was shot out of our dirty car window one recent afternoon. Hence the unusual bokeh goin' on around the sunburst! I thought the clouds were so cool though, the way they stacked one on top of the other.

If you haven't stopped by Sky Watch Friday recently...or ever...you should take a few minutes to visit and see some seriously awesome skies!

I See the Moon & the Moon Sees Me

I wanted to get an Autumn feeling with this shot.

At first I wanted the branches and leaves to all be in focus, but the more I  look at it, the more I like the soft color that I got instead!

Wow, what a difference a lens can make!
I took the above two with my 70-300mm lens.
Below was my last attempt at a moon shot with my 18-55mm lens.
