Thunderstorms

We had huge thunderstorms last night. Now I don't usually go outside during storms but last night I was already out, and so got to witness one of nature's greatest marvels.



I took these photos of these huge and angry clouds overhead. There is a lot of noise in the pictures, my camera doesn't do well in low light situations. But I think they give you a little taste of what my storm was like. Try as I could, I could not get a picture of lightning flashes, oh well, maybe next time. We are in tornado and storm season now so it's just a matter of time :)



It rained buckets on us all night, our yard was flooded, and we even have a storm drain in the middle of it :)

Odd Shots Monday

Obviously an overexposed picture. But I like the way the water looks like silk against the tree branch.

Camera Critters

I found this bird and his mate both sitting on my porch rail last week. I don't know what kind they are or anything but these are my first animal pictures that I have taken besides from Mischief, and I thought they turned out well :)

Anyone else having problems uploading pictures with Blogger? I have been trying all day just to get these two uploaded, It's driving me nuts!!

Go check out some more animals every Sunday at Camera Critters.

We planted these flowers in our flower garden this year (ok, my husband planted them while I took pictures, lol). I took this one right after he watered them and you can still see the water drops on the flower.

Sky Watch and Photo Friday - Far From Home

This is a picture taken by my husband while on his plane trip to Korea. It is definitely a sight to see :)



And here they are flying on TOP of the clouds....



The theme for this Photo Friday is Far From Home. Well I think Korea is about as far as my husband can get from home....

Odd Shots Monday

Taken the other night out my back door with the Night Shot setting on my camera. The reason why it is odd is because we live in a housing development, there shouldn't be deer anywhere near here! I took a bunch of photos, both with and without flash, but this is the only one that came even close to turning out :)
