So do I.

I stood for about 15 minutes, and took around 10 shots!

features behind you. Sometimes there are colors that will knock your socks off.

Searching for a great one I got, REFLECTED sunset on the creek etc! Otherwise, directly 'behind me' is the cottage, then trees, creek, trees.

GOT IT!

photoshoots.

There's also a lite version.

IF the sky looks promising, and even if it doesn't, I keep watching, as changes occur continually, as you noted!

I face directly west, across the river, unobstructed, have a somewhat obstructed view to the east (see my sunrise pics!,) have a clear view to the north up river, and a somewhat obstructed view to the south.

I can see most of the weather that's coming. Partly cloudy now, with winds from the west at 18 mph. Will go out later, when winds subside to 12 mph, so I'm not blown into the river or creek! Landlord's friends were planning to fish here today, but not sure that they did, due to the wind.

In a few weeks, once I am sure of my knee, I am going to hike Raven Run in Fayette County, and Marble Creek in Jessamine county.

You did good avoiding the flares.
