Flowers - specifically Roses

Welcome to Fall! During this week, we had the Fall Equinox here in the United States. Our temperatures have been fall like because of Tropical Storm Beta keeping it cloudy, rainy, and cool here in southern Louisiana. The rain has helped the rose bushes for their second blooming. I noticed the roses starting to bloom again earlier this week. I love getting rose shots. Here is one I got from earlier this week.

I will be posting more flower shots on here as they bloom. There are all kinds of flowers. When I’m not getting storm shots, flowers are one of my favorite things to capture.

I hope everyone has a wonderful week and weekend. Shalom.

What a weekend...

Oh, where to start? Friday, I was getting ready for work. I adjusted my pants and my back seized up on me. I have been having problems for almost two weeks now with having spasms. This time, it locked up on me. I tried to sit down on my bed and ended up in the praying position, unable to move. My wife brought me an ice pack, and it helped enough so I could lie down on the floor. After being there for about 20 minutes, I was able to stand up and go to my chair. I have been fighting this ever since. I could maneuver around better on Saturday. I could make it out of bed a tad easier this morning without having to roll out like yesterday.

In the afternoon, we had a nice thunderstorm come through the area. I shot video footage of the storm cells coming in and once it passed; I followed it in my car. There was lots of lightning, so I spent over an hour taking storm shots. I made it home, transferred my pictures onto my external hard drive like I do. Got up today, and those images aren’t on my drive. I took some of the best lightning shots and they aren’t there. Poof. I’m trying to recover the pictures. I hoping this works. We shall see.

I was getting footage with my phone. Here is one of the best shots I got. At least I have something to share.

Sorry for the long post. This isn’t my norm, but I wanted to get it out there. Please subscribe to my website or to my YouTube channel, if you haven’t. I would appreciate it.
