Here is something a little different for you lovelies! I shot these pictures using infrared film, at a beautiful state park in Canada. The weather was changing very quickly and there was a big thunderhead moving in. Infrared film makes normal blue skies look black, and clouds look super white. Everything else just comes out, well, maybe a little surreal. 😆 ![Storm moving in - Point Pelee, resized](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/7/5/75c3bf1837327731a7e93a447e80cb8b734543bf.jpeg) I caught these people walking their dog before the storm hit! Infrared records the lightwave frequency differently than regular film, so this shot shows a sunbeam coming through the air and hitting that log in the bottom right. ![Point Pelee cropped, resized](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/3/a/3ad0798ec3ed630e7a8315e11ff32665c3e63f68.jpeg) The wind was starting to blow a lot of debris onto the beach. ![Point Pelee beach north view, resized](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/b/6/b607f77f6e846d969c3ea5f4958742d44678a1c1.jpeg) Infrared film also makes the trees (all green foliage) turn white. I took this while we were driving into the park. ![Pelee Point curving drive](https://spells8s3.b-cdn.net/original/3X/8/a/8a0ca9af3f3f862e5dba27a666acd69b0b2ae574.jpeg) I know they look kinda strange, but I hope you like them! I shoot mostly B&W film. 🙂 ---

Day three of heavy rains storms and flash flooding.

> [@Feathertip](#): > > what gorgeous sunset shots! Love the reflections in the water. Thank you ☺ I adore when the lake is still enough to reflect the clouds or sky perfectly. > [@Mystique](#): > > You always take such beauty sky pictures. Thank you for the kind compliment ☺ > [@Greenbriar](#): > > sadly I live in suburbia. Actually, I do too! Our city has 5 interlocking man-made lakes for recreation and city drinking water. We live with a view of one out back. 1/4 mile away is a busy bypass loop. 🛣 I am lucky and grateful to have the woods within easy walking distance as well as a shopping center and gas station one mile away. The moon shot was luck. My phone is terrible at taking night photos let alone trying to get the moon but this was one of the best ones I’ve taken! 🌙 ---
