Better luck next time!

One of the things I like most about photography is the diversity of subject matter.I get bored quick and it alows me to stay interested.I just keep my camera with me all the time and don't plan much just take as it comes.
Kids Elderly sunsets moonrise local landscapes macro weather funny sad you see what I mean
Cristi , on the other hand, is the consumate(does this word work here? it sounds good) planner.Christmas shopping is 90% done by april, she will plan vacations 6 months ahead of time, she actually thinks out the route she will take even in our hometown.
OPPOSITES ATTRACT and boy does it work for me
I digress (ADD = tangentialism 8*} )
I saw a few lightning strikes when we were coming home from Supper.Cristi recognized my look and insisted I keep going after I dropped them off assuring me she would put them to bed and that I needed a break(I love this woman)
ANYWAY 100 pics later and 2 hours after I dropped them off I got home to down load 5 shots of which this was the best.
That's why this mediocre shot is a great picture to me,all the effort that went into it.I'm learning they all don't have to be great shots

Sweet shot and even sweeter wife. I can't wait for the storms to start rolling in here. I love thunderstorms....something magical about themm. I don't think this is mediocre. I like it.
