Jay and I went a couple miles outside of Springfield to take a few photos last night. I like this one, but wish that Lightroom could fix barrel distortion. It’s sad when I’m too lazy to open another app to fix this, oh well.

A Break from the Weather
The forecasts for today were pretty bleak, full of severe thunderstorms and just overall nasty weather. Thankfully, we ended up with a beautiful June evening full of sun, warmth, and a cool breeze. I was able to take advantage of the respite by spending some time wandering around getting more practice behind my camera.
Here are three of my favorites from tonight, with a few more in gallery:

Lucky Photo
I stepped outside briefly last night and took a few quick photos of the sky in hopes of catching some lightning. This should make a decent desktop wallpaper:

*YAWN*
I guess I shouldn’t have gone to bed at midnight, that would have made the 2am thunderstorm wakeup a lot easier to cope with. That was one very strong storm, at times sounding like it was going to blow the windows out of the house.
Bonus points though, David didn’t wake up at all during it.
It’s going to be a looooong day.

At work this morning we came across Adobe’s accidental moratorium on Trial Downloads:

Wow, pretty drastic. The FAQ reads:
During the month of June 2008, certain product trials that are launched for the first time (regardless of when they were installed) will function for only one day instead of 30 days, due to an error in a line of code that counts down the remaining days in a trial
We were wondering how quickly that guy got fired 🙂 My money is on it being an intern’s fault…

Rain
It has been raining most of the weekend, which sucks for outdoor activities but is great for gardens!
This picture reminds me that I need to get the landscaping rock ordered and dump off at our house.
The rain is also treating Ana’s azaleas well:
And since you were kind enough to read this far, here’s David:
