August 2019 – Page 3 – Passion for Photos

Mt. Lassen

This was taken a couple of years ago during the drought. If you were to go to Mt. Lassen right now, even in August, you would see a lot more snow. The road through the park opened very late this year. Wish I was there.

Dies wurde vor ein paar Jahren während der Dürre genommen. Wenn Sie nach Mt. gehen würden. Lassen Sie jetzt, sogar im August, viel mehr Schnee sehen. Die Straße durch den Park öffnete sich sehr spät in diesem Jahr. Ich wünschte, ich wäre da.

Agapanthus at Night

Actually I was looking for different ideas photographing flowers. So I tried to experiment with my off camera flash. I stopped my lens down to f11 and used the flash from the bottom up. This is what I got.

Enjoy and keep on photographing!

Ready for take off

Norwich Cathedral

Moderne Fenster lassen die normannische Kathedrale in ungewöhnlichem Licht erstrahlen.
Modern windows let the Norman cathedral shine in an unusual light.

Classic Power Nap

Seen at Classic Days 2019 at Dyck Castle, Germany. The Classic Days are an annual event around classic cars, and the proud owners of old vehicles present themselves in historic costumes as well.

Summer Time Shots

As I was waiting in line for the Ferris wheel, I looked up and captured this image with the sun shining through. The black and white really accentuates the beautiful details in the Ferris wheel. Enjoy!

Mariposa Painted Lady

This Painted Lady fit in beautifully with this field of Common Media. I will never tire of taking pictures of butterflies, birds and bees as they flit around our fields of wildflowers in the foothills of the sierra nevada. Enjoy your day.

Vase

I discovered this beautiful vase in a dark niche at the Mission Inn Hotel in Riverside, CA. Enjoy and keep on photographing!
