No eclipse here...
I went out to photograph the eclipse, but it turned out that the scene behind me was far more interesting. This is somewhere NW of Springfield.

I have to agree about the interesting part Tim. I love the color in this. And the mangled trees add an element of disarray that is very different than what I usually photograph. Very original - thanks for sharing.

Hey Tim, Very nice catch. I particularly like the weighting you gave the subject set against the expanse of the sky. The mangled trees (a result of your horrendous ice storms this year I assume) add an interesting element. Nice shot Tim!

Ha - Tim, I actually thought about doing that. :biggrin: But restraint won the day.

Tim, great catch!

Very nice picture Tim. It looks like those trees paid a price in the ice storms.
