Hello! How is everyone? It turned a bit cold today – I didn’t do so much. Nagging headache that seems comfortable to stick around!
Got some snaps of the tiny chips of sapphires. You’d chuckle to see a photo with scale. As it is, the close up photos look more impressive than real life, but it is a lot of fun to find them, no matter if they are teensy!
Tonight we were treated to a spectacular storm! We don’t usually get the thunder and lightning here, but it really turned it on for a while!
I stood out the back in the dark to watch, thinking I could just enjoy without the camera… but on and on it went so I caved in and went and got it. Only hand held, didn’t bother setting up tripods etc, but managed to get a few streaks on the ‘film’
Its all gone quiet… everyone is in bed, storm has finished. Time to tuck Pip up and head off.
Hopefully the weather will be nice tomorrow and my head not headachy and Emma and I get to do some interesting things!
Have a great day!
Cheers
I think the last is my favourite. To get lightning shots you get a LOT of failed totally black frames! lol
Hey Lisa, please do share a photo showing the scale of the sapphires. I’ve been panning once but it was at an amusement park. It was fun! We found itty bitty chops too.
No worries! I really should have done that when I was taking those photos 🙂 it does help people realise we are not going to rush off all rich and famous anytime soon! 😀 😀 IT is fun isn’t it?? Even at a park. We enjoy having a couple of spots where we know we will find specks of gold or sapphires!!
