One of the best vibrant brightest Sun Dogs I've seen. It was gorgeous. Same spot as the sunset.

I know many people do not find Vultures beautiful. Indeed by most standards they are not the most handsome raptor.

But I also think they are worthy of photographing. They glide and soar like no other birds I know. They take a back seat to no other bird when it comes to being graceful.

Vultures are beautiful in spirit.

left work to get to the marina to shoot in the nice light. Before I got there the clouds rolled in and the wind picked up. yup Hanna is rolling in.

So nature handed me a lemon - so I made lemonade. :-) I used the monochrome feature and shot mostly black and white.
