Been away for a while (still am), and I'm sure missing being able to shoot much. Anyway, here is a sunset shot in an Iowa cornfield.

    Yeah Richard, your right on with that. A nasty thunder storm with 60mph winds had just blown through and the setting sun peaked out at the last moment. I knew that I only had about 2 minutes or less for the shot. Lukily I nabbed it before it went under.

    Great shot here, pard. Nothing like being ready when the opportunity presents itself. Good eye for the picture that was developing and good execution of the shot itself.thumb.gif

    How much longer are those boys going to hold you hostage up there?

    Take care, say hi to Teresa, and scratch Tater's belly for me,

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Hey Randy! I've been wondering where you went--I also miss seeing your work. I love this shot--the lighting is great and the diagonal lines work well. It's a wonderful image and I'm glad to see it. You're smart to stay out of TX--we're expecting 3 more months of this!

    Take good care,
    Lauren

    HI Mary,

    I was through your town at 3am. I figured you might not have been crazy about that time frame rolleyes1.gif, also, I had a good bit to go with no time for chatting, eating, sleeping... 46 hours straight in the Mini eek7.gif

    Who stuck the sun in my computer and where are my sunglasses?

    Great shot, I could almost feel the warmth of that sun as if it were here on my desk.
