Photos... Snaps.... Pics....

So, hmmm... 

It is so much easier to record a snippet at anytime during the day, especially when you carry a nifty cellphone around that happens to have a camera in it. (Believe it or not - some time still have "old school" phones -- and it seems really odd that I referred to the cell phones that are not as "smart" as opposed to the kinds that are actually plugged in to a wall and have a cord attached to the receiver - that part that goes up to your ear... so you can actually have a conversation on it...)

There is always something fascinating to look at - if you are not looking at your smartphone tweeting, playing AngryBirds, checking Facebook or reading your email.  When you are outside - nature certainly is the star.  The crazy weather has given me some really cool experiences that made my lightning phobia take a back seat while I found myself standing around outside to capture some awesome skies with the rolling of thunder as a soundtrack.

There have been some really cool storms (easy to say that when there was no devastation in their wakes) here in the Northeast part of the USA...  There was one storm, that I, like many, seem to like to refer to as "The Ghostbusters Storm" - the clouds were gloriously creepy - and Instagram was flooded by photos of these clouds looking over NYC.  And the cool floating show extended way past Gotham.

With all of the photos posted on the internet with the storms, and in general, technology is seemingly getting people to "stop and smell the roses" - or at least appreciate looking at them and snap a pic to Instagram...

Check back when I update this - there will be images...
