Weekly Photo Challenge: Transformation

Weekly Photo Challenge: Transformation

 

Errr… you know when you go around taking pictures of things in “transition” because you think that’s what the photo challenge is and then you look late at night and realize it was a different, long, “t” word?

Yeah… that’s what I did.

I was going to talk about the transition from day to to night, how the neighbor was taking the corn off his field tonight and how this was taken in my driveway and all the transitions those things contain. It was a great “transition” post I had been writing in my head.

As it stands it was a good thing those clouds have been transformed by the setting sun or I’d have nothing to post tonight!

Colorado: Not All Fishing

My mom and I took a trip to Colorado and despite the look of the previous post we did see more than fish.

Kansas sunset
Nebraska thunderstorm

Bourbon
elephant head flower
mule deer in velvet
moose
dipper bird
sunflower
pika

But it’s possible we only looked up when the fish weren’t biting!

cut throat trout
rainbow trout
brook trout
hungry fish made this even prettier in person

Sunset Storm

I stood at the edge of the orchard, facing the southern sky, surrounded by the buzz and bite of mosquitoes and watched. Slapped mosquitoes and watched some more.  storm

 

As I fed mosquitoes the whole impressive show slid by, the sun set and I turned and headed back to my dark house.

The storm just before this one was more of a direct hit. No major damage but it’s been over two hours now and our power still hasn’t recovered!
