We went on a little roadtrip this afternoon and this is one of the sights along the way. My husband doesn't slow down for much of anything when he's driving but especially not when he's on his way to pick up his new tv so this was shot through his dirty windshield going 65 mph. Not bad considering!! :)
Where do you even find places like this!? Lucky. I have to say your landscapes are AMAZING even if thier not my style. YOu have ALOT of talent, I hope you know :) :)
I love this. I was just wishing I had a nice windmill photo in my project. This is great. I love old buildings, something that looks like it has a story to tell. Keep sharing!
Surely you jest!!! I cannot believe that was the situation when you took this shot. Very impressive at any speed. I love the contrast, composition. and clarity. I'm a bit blown away Paula. You are a good photographer!
@stepheesue@scottwong@barbsmith@invisiblejett@hiddencreek@gingersanders@plp@kellyintampa Thank you all for your very nice comments!! Actually, I've had a lot of practice over the years taking pictures through the windshield after a few extended vacations out West. If I had my way I'd stop for every little attraction along the way but my husband, not so much! Of course for every good picture there are dozens and dozens that get deleted! :)
@individuality_a Thank you for the positive feedback! Your comment made me laugh because I'm always whining about not having anything interesting around here to take pictures of .... why can't we live somewhere that has scenery!! :)
@bluemoon I'd suggest Tennesse in the first few days of Sring and the Dead of Summer. WHEW! What scenery! Green or pink EVERYWHERE! Or Florida in the begining of Summer.
@plp@maggie2@jonna Thank you, I really appreciate your nice comments! I think because it was so cloudy out you couldn't see the crud on the windshield....I'd have never gotten away with it if the sun was shining! :)
@wac Thank you very much Wendy, I consider that a huge compliment coming from you! :) BUT, you didn't see all the pictures that went straight to the recycle bin!! :)
Good picture and great through the windshield. I know what you mean about husbands stopping for our picture taking. Doesn't happen. You get to shoot along the way. You've obviously mastered the skill. LOL
Yes, mine says 'Let me know if you want to stop for a picture', then drives so fast past everything that it's long gone before I have a chance to speak up! You got a really good one out of this, though. Love it.
@girlie@brittarnhild Thank you so much for the kind words and your comments made me laugh! Husbands pfffttt....can't live with em and can't live without em! :)
@kirsty@ellida@emeraldboots@peggysirk@geertje@shadowdancer@cglist@cowbirdlane Thank you for stopping by and commenting on my photos, I really look forward to reading them and viewing all your photos! It makes me smile when anyone says I'm lucky to have such landscape to photograph because I am always dreaming of traveling someplace exotic where there is beautiifull scenery everywhere I look...I guess the grass is always greener on the other side! Sometimes rural gets a little boring! :)
We're somewhat rural, we live on 40 acres with about 175 cows. I wasn't sure if I'd love it or not, but...... I DO! You should stop by my blog and it'll give you an idea of my place. www.thedaysillremember.com
Not bad at all considering it was through the windshield and highway speeds!
Husbands are all alike :-)
