I was finally able to use the monopod I bought and I was thoroughly enjoy myself! In fact I will probably bore you with all the photos I posted but I was having fun and then I couldn't decide which photos to post, lol...I was also playing with the light meter. It is taking me awhile to get the hang of using the meter but I am getting there, practice makes perfect!
I loved the way the light rays were beaming through the clouds, this is looking down our driveway to the West. We had thunderstorms all around us this afternoon, mind you I said all around us...Not one of them came near us and still no rain!
Prickly pair poppy...I wanted to see how the Monopod worked with Macro. Since I dusted all the flowers up at the house for grasshoppers, I had to venture out to the pasture...I used the 28-105mm lens tonight.
Oh Boy!! Jake what have you gone and done now!! Yikes!! I turned around and here is Jake, just too darn funny!! Jakey are you stuck?
What a goofy dog...but you know what? I went up there to un-stick him and got out on his own...thank goodness Collies have slender heads! I also see I need to paint and fix the yard gate, it looks kind of yucky!! I'll add it to my "to do" list, lol...
I was just in AWE of the beautiful clouds and sunset tonight, can you tell? LOL...and was having way too much fun with the Monopod...so much easier than lugging the tripod around!
I caught two of the hummers on camera...Sweet! We've been having hummingbird wars here, you would think 3 feeders were plenty!
I know Jeez another hummingbird but I liked the silhouette with the clouds behind it.

I'm enjoying your pictures so much, Wendy!! Your sunsets are just magnificent!! Thanks for sharing! You've inspired me tonight....we're heading out in a bit for an evening car ride and I will have camera in hand. I'll see what I come back with! Maybe I'll have something worth posting on my blog!!
wow! these are amazing! love those sunset shots and glad you took a bunch. we can't get those kind of shots here unless i drive pretty far away from the house, we have too many trees around here. beautiful job wendy! don't you just love the monopod? one of the best things i've bought so far.
WOWEE!!!! These shots are stunning!!!! The colors in the clouds, the creative shutter speed of the hummingbirds, and JAKE!!!! I love that dog!!!!! Oh my, if *my* dog ever did that, we would need to tear the pickets down!!!! Yes, thank goodness for slender necks and heads...which my dog lacks!!! LOL!!!!
Your pictures are amazing. I think that first one could count as a reflection. After all it is light reflecting water, right!
And, thanks, I now have Hummingbird feeder on my list!
Oh poor Jake!! Lucky he managed to get out!! Love those sunset photos - just stunning!!
The cloud shots are REALLY great! You'll have to let me know how you like that monopod~ I've never used one and am at a loss for HOW to use them!
Great Macro on the poppy too!
Great silouhette's and great clouds....but the sun's ray's is my pick out of this incredible bunch
