Photo of the Day-Day 23

Cloud on Fourth Street

CraigiePoo and I were hanging over on Fourth Street in Berkeley at the Crate & Barrel store today. I took this photo just as we were about to get in the car. It's been raining all week and today was the first day with no rain. This cloud was just hanging out, waiting to cause trouble.

I delved a little deeper in Adobe Lightroom 2 with this photo. I made the sky bluer than it actually was. Neither of the buildings are actually that bright in person. If I remember correctly one is actually a fading yellow color (the one with the windows) and the other is actually gray.

Blue Dawn

I took this photo in the parking lot at work. It had stopped raining long enough for me to snap this photo and get from the car to my building without getting drenched I'm loving the light and color.

Photo of the Day-Day 19

When it rains heavily, this street outside my window at my plantation tends to flood. Today I thought I was going to need to hitch a ride with Noah on his ark. There was a ridiculous amount of rain. I also experimented a little with the color using Adobe Lightroom 2. I should read one of the three manuals I have about Lightroom and really learn how to use the program.

One day I'm going to buy a macro lens so I can get real good and close to those raindrops.
