Picture-A-Week 2020 - Week 34

[pierces]

Pictures taken between Monday, August 17and Sunday, August 23.

 

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

Went out after a rain shower.....some things were still wet and some things weren't. Also went a little crazy in Luminar on some of the images.

Another week of social distance. Woo-hoo. At least we managed to make good progress on the home improvement projects. That was a little harder than usual since the weather delivered over a week of 100°+ afternoons that made spending any length of time in the garage feel like there should be vultures perched on the fence watching me. By the time Sunday came around, we decided to cut the day short and enjoy the air conditioning. Early afternoon found me with a controller in hand doing some exploration in the Hilbert Dimension while sipping on an excellent imperial stout, appropriately named (for Sunday) Big Bad Baptist. I’m not 100% sure that is an authorized substitute for attending an actual service, but it tasted great and I didn’t risk getting arrested.

Thought this was really cool - looks like the headlights of God's car coming from the clouds

Another weekend out in the western wetlands, at the edge of the Everglades...still the only spot in my county I can visit for nature photography!

 

Least terns have returned and were busy dive bombing the wetlands pond (big thunderstorm had just passed and is filling up the background):
