I had an uneventful trip home yesterday afternoon.  I can’t remember a prettier sky than yesterday.  Deep blue color and big puffy white clouds.  I shot a ton of images of just clouds.  You never know when you’re going to need some good clouds for a composite image. 🙂

Where Highway 20 and I-35 meet there is a large number of wind turbines near a town called Jewel.  I wanted to take an image of those wind machines against that wonderful blue sky.  This image is not quite how I had it pictured in my mind but I couldn’t get the view I wanted as I would have been shooting directly into the sun.

I saw lots of barns on highway 20 that I wanted to shoot.  Some were in a real bad state.  I didn’t stop for a lot of them because of traffic and to be honest I was ready to be home.

I liked this shot because you can get a feel for how beautiful the sky was yesterday.  The structure was sitting in the middle of a field with no other building around.  That’s what first drew my attention to it.

So I made it home and Jeanne and Maggie were both glad to see me.  It is fun to go sometimes but I’ve become a home body pretty much.

The conference was a little weak this year.  There were some good subjects on Tuesday, but yesterday I was not inspired by the presenters.  I think the main benefit most of the time is the networking you get to do.

Making sure you have a good peer group of people who you can help and be helped by.  So from that stand point and the CE hours it was worth the two-day investment.

Thanks for stopping by.  Enjoy your Thursday and be careful.
