Cloudscape

Sunset on a cloud bank (5-shot panorama using a 200mm).

This SkyWatch Friday is an anniversary of sorts for me - I started this blog 1 year ago on Aug 7th, 2008 (here's the first post). The month before that first post, I took the plunge in buying a new DSLR and re-started my dormant interest in photography.  I'm not sure  exactly why I decided to restart this hobby, but I'm glad I have.  I've had a great time, seen some awesome scenery, and meet some cool people. 

Thanks, ya'll!

Be sure to visit SkyWatch Friday for great images of our skys.
