Drive By - The Water Balloon

This is another example of why I carry my camera with me as much as possible. I shot these images about a year and a half ago on my way to work one morning. I saw the balloon ahead descending into the reservoir...I jumped out of my car and ran to the water's edge and got these shots.

Drive By - Frosty Morning

This is a good example of why I carry my camera everywhere. It had rained an icy rain the night before and then turned to a very light snow in the morning. On my way to work, I noticed that the ice coated weeds now had snowflakes stuck to them. The sun was still rising, which gave me the really cool background to work with.




This particular field, by the way, has been a real treasure trove of photo ideas. I've stopped numerous times on my drive in to work. I've shot sunrises, the ubiquitous 'farm' tree, and various deer over the last few years from the edge of the road.
