POTD - Return Of The Wallas

This is of course the Climatron at the Missouri Botanical Garden. The great difference is the return of the Dale Chihuly "Walla Walla Onions". They hadn't been in the center pools due to refurbishment on the pools, but they are back and looking better than ever. This is one of my more favorite shots from the day, as the reflections showed up beautifully on the almost still water. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Storm Rolling In Over Devil's Rope Ranch

As I said in my last post, after we had gotten all the camping gear packed up and were relaxing at the house with Pat and his family, we saw a little storm cloud. In about five minutes that little storm cloud turned into this. We decided after Jenea was able to tear me away from snapping photos that it was time to leave. I thought this represented both the scope of this storm as well as what an awesome view their house has. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Calming Campsite

This is the direction our tent was facing when we went camping over the weekend. Like I said, we were at my buddy Pat's property, so having a nice open spot right on the river was awesome. We lucked out with such great skies over that weekend. Clear skies both nights for the new moon, white fluffy clouds Saturday, and a wicked storm rolling in Sunday just before we left. Luckily for us we were all packed at that point. :) Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - New Moon At The Devil's Rope Ranch

Jenea and I spent the weekend with our good friend Pat at his house. He has a lot of land well outside the city. This weekend was specially chosen because of one big reason for me, new moon. New moon means no moon, which means tons of stars. Then the later it got the more clear it became, I was going to get to shoot the Milky Way! Keep in mind everyone, this is my very first time shooting stars, much less the Milky Way. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Lights, Camera, Over Action

Inside the Carthay Circle shop in Disney's Hollywood Studios, I found this light fixture. It was quite beautiful and even more so mixed in with the other architecture. I of course have been in the midst of planning our October trip, so the random Disney photo from last trip is helping keep my excited at bay. :) Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Lightning With No Storm

A closeup and understandably ultra wide shot of the Arch. I decided to include the bright light in this for the fact that at this angle, the Arch looks like it's got lightning on it. That combined with the awesome clouds, I can't complain when things come together. :) Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
