On the Road
From July 17 to July 25 we were on a road trip to visit the grand kids at their summer camp and then to spend a few days in Bar Harbor, Maine. I found it difficult to be inspired to take decent images on the several long driving days, but wanted to keep up the PAD. So, this first is some where between Maryland and Scarsdale, NY.

Dreamy
I noticed a shaft of morning sunlight hitting the flowers on our deck. I grabbed the camera and headed out on the warm humid deck and forgot that a cold camera from an air conditioned house will get nice condensation all over the lens. However, I kind of liked the resulting dreamy image.

Beautiful Sky
The sky and clouds were absolutely beautiful while we were heading to the airport to beat some thunderstorms coming from the other direction. This was processed in Color Efex Pro 4.

Tree Bark and Moss
It was a mostly cloudy day today so I hauled out the Speedlight again. The patterns of moss and bark on an old oak on our property caught my eye.

Flower Theme Continued
I had light painting, natural sunlight, and I now felt it appropriate to use some flash. This was done with a single speed light to the left of the camera. I had another set for a little bit of fill from the right, but it isn't noticeable.

In the Kitchen
A ray of sunlight coming through the skylight in our kitchen lit up these flowers.

Cutest Grand Daughter Ever
Of course, I am not prejudiced.

Light Painting
The bouquet of flowers in our living room caught my attention so I did a little bit of light painting for this image. I got really lucky. This is one of the few images that is straight from the camera.

Final at FDK
It was a very hot and hazy day today with thunderstorms moving around. We stayed in the pattern for "touch and goes" until we got too hot.

Inside When It is Hot
I tried my hand at images of beading water drops on glass today. I had trouble getting nice big round drops of water. I tried a thin coat of cooking oil on the glass, but that didn’t work too well. More playing for the next hot day.
