Wow. Amazing shot OW.

Thanks! Every time I go out there, I'm surprised that house is still standing. I'd like to shoot hoarfrost out there yet and get some better lightning shots, but if the house collapsed tomorrow I think I'd be satisfied with what I've already gotten out there.

If the house collapsed, just wait for a "moody" day and go take some more awesome shots

My thoughts exactly before I read your post.
Nonetheless, OW, you take some phenomenal shots sir.
Can't wait for the "tornadic" season, I mean spring.
Put my weather station finally to some good use and hopefully get some decent shots in the yard.

Bad habit of "GAS" syndrome while the other camera is in for service, meet the a7 mk II testing.

Found myself a new place for lightning shots nearby. It'll be a bit tricky, these shacks are way back in the field, but my Tokina 70-210 was able to get nice and close anyway at full zoom.
Good spot for aurora, too, as this is facing north.

One more, just because. This is the Tokina at full zoom with a 50% crop. I've been driving past this house every week for years and only noticed it today. Super inaccessible in the middle of a field, but a photographer friend of mine says the place is absolutely worth the hike. The whole building is leaning north, away from the camera.
I didn't go out there today, as I had to go to work, but you better believe I will see it up close and the camera will be there. I have a rain hood for the camera now, so even lightning is not out of the question.
Next time I'll use this place to block the view of the building behind it and probably get to the other side of the fence to make it look more isolated than it does here.

Found another abandoned farm on the way to work yesterday. It was snowing pretty good at this point, so I made this one grayscale.

At the local cafe, there is a massive custom painted mural that wraps around the entire interior. It was done by a past owner of the place. I was asked to shoot it this morning, and because I likes me a challenge I said yes.
This is the 18-55 kit lens - the only one I had wide enough angle for the job.

Rare sight this far inland, Egyptian geese. I scoped the area and just the pair was around.

They're planning to tear down the old Pastime Theater in town today, a 90 year old building (recently a museum) that has been declared structurally unsafe. I've been shooting it all week, hoping for one of our amazing technicolor sunrises.
Finally, just this morning, it happened. The last sunrise she'll ever see was this one.

Great shot OW! I'm surprised there isn't more snow on the ground though.
