Before arriving at Whitecap Beach the other day, I pulled off and walked into the Packery Channel Park to catch the sunrise with my lensball. Tho, it wasn't all that spectacular [cloudless sky], I still took some shots at the 1st light of the morning...
By the way, the daytime temp was 65 degrees at this hour, with a brisk, warm breeze. And by mid afternoon it was 80 degrees. Humidity was only 23%...a most perfect Springtime day all the way around. It did remain cloudless throughout. But another cold front...a freezing cold front is to move in next week at this time. So winter is not over yet. I'm looking forward to the days like Thursday. Yet, I dread what follows come June. Another hurricane, high humidity summer, coming all too soon.
4th up from the bottom is my favorite, it looks magical, like not through a ball, can barely see it. we have been having perfect days for 4 days, the kind you desribe. yesterday was 75 and humidty was 39 so perfect so perfect... our heat/humidity always started in June but the past 2 years it starts in April, we always had Feb through may that we could open windows and no ac was needed. ac went on in March last year andnever went off until Dec.
ReplyDeleteThose summertime temps come way too soon for me. lol
Deleteyes, Beau loves all fruit. oranges, grapes, black berries, apple, bannana and he loves tomatoes. those are all we have tried, forgot pineapple. in fact he will eat anything we hand him. he only gets 1 bite each time we eat fruit, to much would make him ill. so far he refuses nothing.
ReplyDeleteThis is just astounding to read.
Delete*gasp* Such beauty surrounds you, Anni!! Thank you for sharing it with us. You are such a wonderful photographer! ~Andrea xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks Andrea
DeleteWhat a beautiful start to the day. As much as I hate winter here I think I would much rather go through my winter than your hurricane season.
ReplyDeleteEspecially if there is a predicted direct hit!
DeleteSuch gorgeous photos and what wonderful temps you had for February!
ReplyDeleteSupposed to freeze here next week! I'm bummed.
DeleteBeautiful reflections. I like the photos with the purple flowers. Take care, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose flowers were pretty in the early morning hour.
DeleteThese are beautiful Anni. I think the last two of the flowers are my favorite. Glad you had a nice day. We've had a few, but the cold is still winning overall.
ReplyDelete...it's supposed to turn nasty & winterish again next week, tho!
DeleteOh yes! The lensball flower shots are beautiful! They give me hope to be able to capture something similar this spring.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to yours Ms.G
DeleteWow, I always enjoy seeing photos through lens balls. Yours are oh so lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Lorraine.
Deleteabsolutely beautiful shots. I remember my days of CC it was about this time of year when we quit mowing, so the grass would seed, turn on the heat for a short amount of time. OH HOW I MISS IT THERE> I love my lensball so many opportunities thanks for sharing with us. Hope you have a great weekend
ReplyDeleteYou should share some of your Lensball photos Gina!!
DeleteI will post them here directly :)
Delete😊
DeleteWhy does it seem that Lovely Weather Days are scant? We get far more extreme weather days, and struggle through them.
ReplyDeleteMost of our days it's the humidity that is unbearable. You just can't acclimate yourself to soggy. lol
DeleteYour upside-down photos are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThank lens must be a fun accessory for photo a taking.
Have a Great Day Anni ⛅
Thanks Jan & have a great day yourself!
DeleteI love that third shot...I think it is the third. But all are pretty darn wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rose.
DeleteWhat an interesting post. I have much to learn, for sure, as I've never heard of a lens ball before. Love it! And the photos are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fun distraction from "regular" photography!
DeleteI do love the reflections in the ball. They are amazing! Thank you for sharing and have a grand day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cathy!
DeleteThese turned out perfectly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ginny
DeleteStunning shots per usual. Thought of you this week when I opened the photo page of our weekly newspaper and it was full of lens ball shots. I'm sure a lot of readers had no idea what they were. I felt a little smug since you had introduced us to the great images.
ReplyDelete😃 I like smug!!
DeleteThese lens ball photos are great, a lovely effect.
ReplyDeleteThanks Denise.
DeleteYou get such good pictures with the lens ball. I really enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ruth

ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thanks Jan
DeleteLove your lensball sunrise. And we have that same cold weather heading our way in a few days.
ReplyDeleteWe'll be getting YOUR front a few days after you.
DeleteWhat I heard of east Rockies it get quite humid, 23% sound nice.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
It was nice...not often that low here.
DeleteRighteous Use Of That Sphere My Dear - Stay Strong
ReplyDeleteCheers
You too...stay safe & strong.
DeleteBeautiful pictures! I would rather have cold weather than hot, humid summers. Fingers crossed that you get some beautiful spring weather.
ReplyDeleteWinters are cold & humid here. There's just no getting away from the humidity.
DeleteThe photos are beautiful. 65 degrees is our morning summer temperatures! :)
ReplyDeleteYep, I remember the HIGH temps being in the 50° range in Colorado & it was shorts weather!
DeleteBeautiful LensBall captures.
ReplyDeleteStill gorgeous with the lack of clouds.
Sue
Thanks Sue.
DeleteThe lensball is beautiful with the sunrise and the flowers! I like the 4th from the bottom the best.
ReplyDeleteThat one & the flowers are favorites,with the majority.
DeleteWhen I lived along the Gulf Coast, summers nearly did me in, and I was born to it. But the winters were lovely. Those photos are absolutely gorgeous. I had not heard of a lensball.
