Like always I happen to take some nonsense, useless pictures from time to time, and then I take some that actually count.  Well at least count to me..

Last night I was taking a picture of our tree that is growing up since we first planted it a couple of years ago and it finally has enough leaves on it.  Here is a picture of our baby tree and a couple of the sunset that followed shortly after.

The last couple days I have had some good opportunities to shoot some clouds and attempt at the moon.  Now granted my camera sucks so the Moon shots really don’t turn out that well for close ups, but I try anyways.

The two pictures I’m going to show here were taken at highway speeds via my sunroof.  Sometimes they actually turn out pretty good.  And the moon shot was taken the same way.  Enjoy…!!!

Yesterday afternoon before we got busy doing our to-do lists, we paused for a few minutes on our back patio basking in the beautiful day.  There were only a few clouds, not too many, and the sun was a mild 79 degrees.  Truly beautiful.  As I stare into the sky thinking about how good the house looked after a marathon cleaning event, I noticed this one cloud pretty much sitting all by himself.  Since I like the sky so much I ran in and grabbed my camera.  The angle of the sun behind the cloud was just right.  Here are two shots of it:

Hopefully you all had a wonderful weekend.

p.s.  Question – Were you late for anything Sunday morning cause of the time change?

The last couple of days we have had some great weather for taking some cloud shots.  Now since I usually do not have time to stop and really focus on the shot you are getting drive by’s..  lol  Not to mention I don’t have a very good camera.

I really love it when you have certain cloud shapes in the sky and the sun is being blocked by these clouds and the clouds have this outer glow to them.  The other day when I got home from work, at least I think it was work, this massive cloud looked like it was on fire with the amount of glow that was coming off of it.  But as soon as I walked around the car and got the camera, the cloud moved and I just missed the shot by seconds.  Here is the result of the shot though:

As you can see I missed the shot, but it would have been a good one just a little sooner.

By now if you have looked at, seen or even read parts of this blog, you can tell that I love taking pictures of storms and cloud formations.  So this post is no different. lol

Last night we had a storm pop up to the South of us and of course it wasn’t coming at us, but with the sun starting to set, it made for some good pictures.
