Fire in the Skies

Still on the trend of yesterday's post, the sun was barely peaking through some clouds, leaving some of the clouds red some dark gray. Then it almost looks like the tree is almost trying to touch the red hot clouds.

Dark Clouds, Light Wood
Toward the end of the day, with the clouds looking like they were about to overflow with rain. I turned on my flash and as expected, it didn't reach the clouds but it did hit the wood illuminating it and making it look like the sun was hitting the wood but not the clouds.

A Look Into Rain
While going on with my rain theme, I looked out my window and saw nothing but rain. Usually you can see all the way to the street way out in the distance, but in this picture you can hardly see it.

Rain Drop
While a during a sudden storm, I focused on the ground and captured rain drop just after it hit the ground. It created this cool funnel like hole.

Heavy Rain, in Slow-mo
During a heavy rain shower, I looked out the window and saw the rain falling harder than ever. I took a few pictures and as the rain hit the road it almost looked like it was going up not down.

Rain and Trees, Mixed
in the background of this picture there is rain while in the forefront of the picture there are tree branches. I timed and captured the picture with just enough so that the rain droplets were frozen and you could still see them.

A Flower, Upclose and Personal

This wonderful photo, taken by my grandfather, captures everything a flower has. The crisp and sharp  picture lets us see more of the flower. Also the background is cool, because you can see the other flower buds and the grass like strips. 

Small, on Medium, to Large
Like my earlier picture Small, Medium, Large, of Yu Darvish and his sons this picture has a small pillow to a medium pillow to a large sofa pillow. The strips on the two pillows make the picture look even more interesting.

From one Tree to the Next

While taking focus and a picture on the closer tree I didn't even see the other one. Then as I was scrolling through my pictures, I spotted the second one in the background.

Spotted Leaf
While taking pictures of flowers I spotted this green and yellow colored bush. It looked like it someone took a paint brush and splattered yellow paint all over it. Turning it multicolored and marvelous looking.  

Tiny, on a Wall

This tiny lizard was crawling on this brick wall. The lizard was so small it was only about five inches long. It was probably trying to find food or go back home. It was on the brick for about two minutes before I scared it away.

A Silky Net
Between two branches in a bush, there is a spiders web. The tiny web has many different lines and pieces of silky string to hold the net together. Eventually a tasty meal will fly into the net and the spider will have food, but until then the empty net just sits there, awaiting its first meal.

Lines of Bars

On the patio of my house, there are wooden beams partly covering it up. It almost looks like the rows and rows of seat at a baseball field. The crisp, straight lines then you see the fans.

Flying Up
As I was walking down my street, I spotted a fake flying Hummingbird in a garden. They way it was angled, I think it was a real one at first. Then as it didn't move when I came closer to it meant that it is not real.

A Running Man, Stopped
As I was trying out the new camera in the front yard, I spotted a runner coming through. I increased the shutter speed then took a round of photos about him. I managed to 'stop' him every time but this was the best one.

Hello Down There
I was walking along, when I saw a dead Yellow Jacket on the cement of my back pattio. I ran and got my camera, then took a few pictures of it before walking off. I took this picture from above to try to capture the whole thing but I forgot to zoom in.

A Golden Star to a Golden Team
In the locker room of the Dallas Cowboys, there is a star wedged between two TV's. The TV's can barely be seen, the black boxes on the left and right side of the picture. I know the Cowboys are blue and white so why the golden star?

From Post to Post

When I was on the Cowboys Stadium (AT&T stadium) field, I decided to get a view from one end of the game field to the other end. The field was so long, the people in the very back of the picture look like ants.

A Look on the Game Field
I was lucky enough to visit the Cowboys Stadium, AT&T Stadium, and get onto the field. I took my camera and put it on the ground then took some pictures. I focused on the ground then I left the background and window blurred.

A Sunset through the Trees
On our drive from dinner back to our house, I took this picture. The other pictures were blurry but on this picture, the shutter timed the shot perfectly. It came out as clear as clean glass.
