Evening adventures
Tonight after work, I came home to face a nagging camera. It said to me "Where have you been? You work too much. We never spend time together anymore! Are you cheating on me with another electronic device? I am afraid our relationship is becoming too distant. What happened to us?"
So as we all know we must keep the other half happy. So I loaded up the gear and off I went. I have been thinking I should get up into the park and do a little photography after work one of these days. I have been working until 7pm most nights so it makes it a little difficult. Long days make me tired and all I want to do is go home and crash. And last night I helped a coworker move into his new place.
Today we have had rain storms moving through so I thought the clouds may put on a show. So off I went. My results are marginal. Nothing stellar but it was a fun night none the less . . . and plus, I renewed my bond with my camera and made her happy. (Are cameras a 'her'? Cars are a 'her' but I have never heard of a camera being referred to anything other then "my baby.")

I like the cloud effect on the turnout piece.
Absolutely beautiful, Jon.
These photos are awesome. I love the Tetons. It is one of my favorite places to be! Makes me want to visit again.
Yes, cameras are a "her." I once had a Norma Jean, and I still have a Marlyn.
"Other half?" Is there another?
Very nice images!!
