Awful flat here in West Texas . A local comedian once said that it is so flat here that on a clear day you can look out across the land and see the back of your head - that's how flat it is . Well I didn't see the back of my head but I did see this colorful sunrise .

The colors in the sky never cease to amaze me. You really do a magnificent job of bringing those colors to us. Hope you got some rain from the system passing by us tonight.

Awful flat....LOL ! Well you caught a beautiful sunrise ! And can't imagine a tornado or lightning photography on this spot, should be also amazing ! Here sometimes the visibility is cutted and sometimes we don't always see well what is coming, specialy from the south.I often go in the mountains to get very good views and to get good pictures.Congratulations on the AC !

About docshovel39
docshovel39 Hello , my name is Tim . I live in the small farming community of Ropesville , Texas with my wife and photo partner Sherry . I got involved with photography because of my older brother Steve - a fantastic photographer who lives outside of Seattle , WA . My favorite work , apart from his , is a terrific book entitled " Ghosts in the Wilderness " by Tony and Eva Worobiec . It captures the remains of small , abandoned rural communities across the Midwest , much of it shot in black and white . I also have become a fan of photographer Jim McGuire . His black and white shots ( nashvilleportraits.com) are amazing . Thank you for your comments and have a GREAT day !
