SkyWatch Friday: Clouds

Another week of mostly gray skies and rain but I did take a few shots when we had a bit of blue.

I didn't think I'd ever get tired of rainy days but this year is testing that.

I am still afraid though that I'll jinx us into a dry summer if I start complaining about the rain.

As I've said before, I'd rather have too much rain than too little.

ABC Wednesday: V is for Veins

After deciding that veins would be my V word, I went on a vein hunt armed with my camera.

I felt victorious as I found a veritable feast of veins.

The sheer volume of veins was very noticeable.

The problem was my camera kept veering this way and that as the veins were everywhere.

In between the strong vertical veins in the next shot are little barely visible veins.

 

The variegated ivy in the next shot has lots of veins.

Ivy is a vine and I bet you can't say vine vein vine vein 10 times very fast.

Our World Tuesday: Reflections in buildings

I took these shots several weeks ago in the downtown part of my city (Raleigh, NC).

I like to shoot reflections in buildings.

It's a different way of looking at my world.

I tend to shoot more reflections in the lakes near my house but whenever I go into the downtown area, I like catching the building reflections.

The sky always looks beautiful to me in reflections.
