Burning Bush
Camera: Fuji X10 Photo Location: Texas ISO: 100 Shutter Speed: 1/250s Aperture: F3.2 
Posted By: Rupert, 03-12-2012, 07:37 PM

I saw the clouds as i was driving toward the Courthouse and hit the gas......I knew I only had a couple of minutes.




It was a gorgeous sight, but only lasted a few seconds.



I carry my X10 everywhere I go, hoping to get lucky...sometimes I do, mostly not.
Regards!

Rupert, great sunset cloud against the silhouette of the barren tree.

Thanks Bob....I liked what I saw, it was unusual to see the swirling colors in those clouds!
I like this over sharpened version the best, I think...

Otis in trouble again?
Well, at least you got some very nice shots as a reward!

Thanks.....Otis never gets out of trouble, unfortunately.

Beautiful shots, Jim.
I have to say though, when I thought about the title and you as the OP, I was a little hesitant to look at the thread. I wasn't quite sure what to expect.

No need to fear Jim......I prefer clean shaven.

Not sure I like the over-sharpened one too much Rupert but I do love the first two and the framing. I am sure you have mentioned before what program you use for your frames but I have forgotten so could you please repeat?

Hi

Rupert, and I thought you can only shoot squirrels and hamburgers. How wrong I was.

Greetings
