Sunsets Storms and Sunflowers

Captured in rural Boulder County, Colorado….let me just say this was honest to God unbelievable to photograph. I had to handhold these shots because of my bum knee and well, the lightning was going crazy right above me. But I managed to get some dang nice shots off. This being one of them. I am really happy with this one, I debated about a square crop, but in the end I figured why the heck not, nothing ventured, nothing gained, right folks?

    Amazing – what contrasts between each of the layers in the composition. And that sky is unique. Square works really well for me particularly in view of the layers. K

    Magical! It’s always great to have a camera ready when you have such a glorious sky. The small houses in the distance are the only element marring a perfect scene. Still such a wonderful image, all the same.
