Green Lake - Updated
Sunday, July 6, 2008
I've been up in the Cariboo for the past couple days, working on a short drilling reclamation job. It's tough to learn the landscape in such a short period in time, but every now and then, the photo comes to you. This is why my camera is never more than a couple seconds away:

The rainbow lasted less than 5 minutes, and the almost-mammatus formation was deteriorating quickly. I charged back to the house (Leyland's B&B, on Green Lake), threw on the telephoto, and ran back out into the yard with a little time to spare...
This image was processed in Lightroom, on my (calibrated but still inaccurate) laptop lcd. I have a feeling I'll want to change a few things once I get home.
**UPDATE**
Changed the photo on the main page after seeing it on my trusty desktop display. Just for reference, here's what I originally posted:

My buddy has a place on Sheridan and we used to spend a bunch of time there in the summer, driving from lake to lake, fishing. Weather moves so fast there. That shot brings back memories.

You're great bushrat Andy. But I'd say your days of busting rock and flaging trees are numbered if you keep taking pics like these. Make sure you float your pics on the international circuit and when I'm a (real old) geezer I can say I know a world famous photographer.
In the meantime, let the companies pic up the chopper tab.
Watch out for the fuzzies!

Dano, p.p., alex... glad you like it, and stoked on the W&W crew are peeping my blog.
Tiffany... thanks!
Anon... kind words, but I doubt I'll be pulling in more coin off photography than mineral exploration anytime soon!
