Its been a while since I posted anything , so there is a few more
There are times when you go out with the idea to photograph something but you end up in a completely different place. I was going to shoot some old mill at dawn that morning but it was a disaster due to some ugly artificial light from nearby construction site, so I took a different route home and I found sunflowers.

These next 3 shots were from the same night. Original Idea was to shoot lightning but the storm was to far away. I stopped by the hay bale to capture incredible colors in the sky and then stayed there for few hours.

I had no idea that I will be granted by lightning storm and aurora at the same time.

Weather forecast was cloudy for the whole night generated by this doppler radar. Even at the time of this photo all apps on my phone said 100% cloud coverage for that area. But me living in Manitoba I know that from 100% cloudy to 100% clear can change in just 15 min and then 15 min later it can be cloudy again.

Next 4 are from the same night, Milky way on a pebble beach was shot first. Aurora forecast was not that great but sometimes you can get unexpected. On this first one you can see andromeda galaxy in the top right corner. I had no Idea that I could capture something like that with 14mm lens.

Here the idea was to shoot fall colors with the morning sun but that didn't happen since the sun didn't come out till noon. Little note here, If you are planing on shooting something at particular time of the day make sure you arrive a bit early so you can get ready for it, plus you might get some unexpected shot like that.

First time this year that weather forecast was right, it said rain all day and should clear up around 6 pm, that's how it was and this was shot about 6 30 pm, Its nice sometimes to pose in your own pictures.
