Immediately ran back into house and grabbed my camera and took some quick shots....I use a Canon R5 camera and it had the RF135mm attached.. This was 1/640 @ F10 iso 200 at 135mm. I love having this view when I walk outside!

    I was on my way home when I saw the paragliders hovering ahead. So even though I thought I would try to get a few photos of them. The storm was getting closer & we all thought we would get wet, but just before it hit, it threw out a quick burst of colour. Sometimes it?s all about timing. iPhone 12 Pro Max & Snapseed.
