O'Sullivan's Law!! Who ever heard of Murphy??


Last night just about everything that could go wrong on a photo outing did! It started out going to Hull to shoot a photograph of a rainbow, except I don't know where my mind was, because I forgot all of my memory cards at home!! I had a full bag of camera equipment, no card to capture anything on! So I went home, grabbed my memory card and just one camera and lens.

I went back to Hull to a new location that I wasn't expecting to go to and it was beautiful! There was still time to see the magnificent sky, and my lens started acting up! Wouldn't focus! So I went to manual focus!! Then, the lens wasn't giving the right meter readings to the camera!! So I went to manual exposure as well! Then even on manual, the lens still wasn't working right!! So I took a few photographs, and got the message that I was just supposed to be here to enjoy the view, so I did! And as far as the sunset goes, there wasn't one! It went behind a cloud! But it was still a picture perfect night, with or without a camera! Sometimes you just have to sit back and enjoy the view!

This is the end of A Street in Hull! A beautiful location!



This is what was left of the thunder storm that breezed by quickly!

This was the last photograph I got, the sunset reflecting on the water and a rock covered with snails!

It ended up being a beautiful night! I didn't get to capture all the beautiful sights that I saw, and that is okay! I enjoyed the night, and have great memories of it! The pictures are there, but in my mind, and I will always have them!

I heard someone say one time. The sun rises and sets every day of your life! How many do you take the time to stop for and enjoy? I try to see as many as I can! It is Mother Nature at her best!  I will have to try again tonight!

Have a great day everyone! Thanks for taking the time to look at my photographs. I hope you enjoyed them! If you find yourself having an "O'Sullivan's Law" day, you may as well laugh at it in the moment, because you know looking back you will be laughing!! So you may as well laugh now!
