Morning Light

Morning Light

Got up to go skiing the other morning just after sunrise. Looked out my front window in New Hampshire and saw Iron Mountain aglow in this amazing red light that was filtering through the clouds. I quickly grabbed the camera that I had with me that was on a nearby table and began shooting.
NOW THERE IS A STORY THAT GOES WITH THIS IMAGE. The night before, I had just finished reading Steve Simon's "The Passionate Photographer" - an excellent and informative read. I had smiled to myself when I had read the paragraph about the images that he had missed over the years as a result of forgetting to put a roll of film in the camera or a memory card in the camera. Neither had ever happened to me in over 50 years of photography.
When I returned home after spending the day skiing, I quickly went to get the memory card out of the camera to upload the images on the computer. Unbelievable! I had forgotten to put a memory card back into the camera after I had down loaded some images to the computer a few day before! Did I feel stupid, dumb - a senior moment :-). Did I jinx myself the night before with my coy smile! I realized that I had left the memory card that had been in the camera in the card reader in my computer back in Rhode Island. After several loud expletive words that I will not repeat here, I returned to my senses. I realized that the camera has limited internal memory for storing images before writing them to a memory card . I removed the memory card that I had placed in the camera after the fact and checked the camera's memory and found that a few of the images that I had shot off were there. I copied them over to the memory card. This is one of the images that had been saved in the camera's memory.
