Snap and Crackle its Lightning!

Finally I was able to do my first lightning photos! This was done during a lightning storm last week that was 40 miles away.

I now realize lightning is very hard to photograph. Sometimes you can miss the opportunity to shot it and sometimes you can get cool photos of lightning.

My photography mentor called me up last saturday to photograph lightning at night. He was grand and responsible for me and he taught me how to photograph lightning.

Lightning can be very dangerous to humans. Sometimes you can be struck even when you don't hear thunder and you can be shocked and even sent to the hospital. Lightning is caused by negative and positive charges that are in the air. A few months ago a woman and man were killed due to Lightning. This is a very dangerous situation.

This was a very exciting thing for me to photograph lightning and I hope to get more lightning pictures soon!

Right Sunrise conditions at Jordan Lake plus good birds

Today I did a sunrise shot with my photography mentor who seemed to be chimping some open his photos today.

This is a Great Blue Heron I took during the sunrise at Jordan Lake Today. We spotted a pair of them doing territorial stand offs which was impressive to photograph today as well.

This was the when the territorials between the two Great Blue Herons were fighting between which territory belonged to them. I got many good shots of this.

This is also a pair of Black Voltures that seemed to be enjoying this beautiful morning grooming and just hanging around the side of Jordan Lake which I also got many shots of them doing their grooming styles for the day.

The other photos I got included a swallowtail butterfly, bees and a new stump I got there today.
Here is a bee on the same flower that before the swallowtail was on.

Hey Hey its AL back with an exciting news from my house today! I have successfully, I have had 1 prey mantis egg sack today that hatched finally . I put 4 up in February 2020 and one hatched today which was amazing to watch and I got many pictures of them hatching from the egg sack today.
