Re: The Great Photography Thread - REVIVED!
I was in Bolton, Ontario today when this morning at about 10AM when the temperature took a sudden drop. I took this facing north; a literal mess of cloud in amongst some well defined clouds to the left and right. Once it rolled in above me, it poured for about 20 minutes and the insane winds afterwards downed some power lines as well. Most of the storms here roll in from the south or west; this was one of only a few times I've seen one coming in from the north.
An hour later, it was back to clear skies.
This year...

Re: The Great Photography Thread - REVIVED!
Taken during recent rains. Advantages of having a weatherproofed
The only reason I went out was to take some fresh images on my camera card for a beginners Adobe Lightroom workshop that evening. I wanted to use it to demo the camera download process. So I went out into the grounds of my apartment building to grab a few snaps. I was really pleased with the results.

Re: The Great Photography Thread - REVIVED!
I have lived in quite a few different environments. Desert (both high desert and low desert) Mountains, and valleys, city and country. Right now we live in a retirement community in central Arizona, lots of open area around us, including a golf course which attracts wild life. Plus we have some new species that we had never seen (Javelina). So I purchased a 'game camera' to see what I could capture. So far your typical stuff, Quail, Doves, Cardinals, skunks etc etc, but the fun part had been the Javelina 'squadrons' that come through along with the bobcats and a fox. But earlier this week this guy showed up and surprised us. Others have seen female out on the golf course but no males, so this was quite a treat.

Great photo Bob!bobharmony wrote: ↑Tue Nov 17, 2020 3:47 am We haven't had a hawk visit the yard since late Winter/early Spring. There have been many sightings of one or two circling overhead since then, but no landings. This morning, this one was sitting out on the playscape. Maybe it's not happy we took the swings away for the season?
