Moody Storm Light

Moody Storm Light
After a Winter which was relatively dry and cold, Spring has arrived with the storms missing from Winter. Rain, snow, wind... and occasionally, some stunning light.

I've added 7 photos to the front of this album to share some of my favorite moments from the past few days... at least the ones where I had my camera handy! Of course the best evening was one when I didn't have my camera along. I was going to spend the weekend with my kids, and I had decided to take a weekend off from photography. I enforced that intent by not bringing my camera. Of course the moment I was driving back into the West Walker River basin the light was about as incredible as I've ever seen it anywhere... a beam of light striking one hillside on the mountains on the eastern horizon, and radiating back out in rays from there. Of course it was all over by the time I reached my camera about 2 minutes later. Live and learn... never underestimate the potential to see something stunning, anywhere, any time!

Here's one of the more recent ones building on those pasts posts: Create a Timelapse Video of a Meteor Shower http://activesole.blogspot.com/2011/08/create-timelapse-video-of-meteor-shower.html I'm curious to see how an HD 720P video gets displayed on G+.
