Gone with the Wind

I have to confess to being quite thrilled by this shot! It is my hat, and I had not intended for it to blow off, but it did... and instead of running after it I took a photo... and caught it mid-air :)

Please note the dry yellow grass... it continues to be hot and all-but-rainless here!

I have a photo for the breaking the rules challenges in my main album:

[Monika]

Haha, thats so cool.. So funny that you took a photo first instead of chasing it. We are no longer "normal people"

[☠northy]

@monika64 ain't that the truth! i had a dream last night that i had forgotten to bring my camera somewhere and was missing all these glorious photo ops...

[ladyjane]

An absolute fav! Great capture of the moment, and perfect for the movie theme!

northy what a fabulous capture!!

[Jim Carleton]

This is marvelous! You might consider cropping it a little closer - delete some of the gray walkway - but this is still a great shot!

[Sharon Lee]

Great capture! Absolutely, like a true 365er you took the shot before saving the hat :)

Really nice. Like the textures of the road, hat and grass.

It's the shadow that makes the shot! Excellent work.
We have plenty of rain if you'd like us to send some over. ;)

This is so awesome! Love that you caught it in mid air. Have to say our grass looks the same around here. Good one for the theme!

[Cassandra Hoffmann]

The type of shot you could never "set up".... awesome work!

[Lyn]

Should have been following you forever, so I hope to make up for the error of my ways now! I have enjoyed your photos through threads and discussions - you are so incredibly creative! And I LOVE this hat catch!

[☠northy]

@lyno why thank you Lyn! such a lovely compliment :)

[michelle mcintyre]

Fantastic capture ...agree with Cass - you couldn't set this shot up!!

Fun capture! Our grass looks the same...hate it when it's crunchy under your feet.
