I go crazy for storms. When there is lightening I can hardly contain myself. Getting photos of this stuff is difficult because you don't know where it's going to strike and whether or not you'll have the correct focus and exposure. This shot worked out well.

I looked up blogging for the Nelson area where I have lived for 9 years. I was surprised to see very little activity in the blogging realm. I may be biting off more than I can chew but I hope to be able to provide accurate information about local events, my photos, wine reviews(check the name) and anything else I can find time to create. Check out another blog I created for our Drag Racing Team... Wagons of Steel North.

This weekend marks another Kootenay milestone. The Shambhala Music Festival is underway in the Salmo BC area and thousands of people are there or on their way there for 5 days of crazy, drug fueled dance mayhem. I'm heading out there manana with my wagon and camera. I'll post some of the photos later. The website is here and a friend of mine does the artwork. My girlfriend and I have a collection of her work...actually we are one of the top 5 collectors of her paintings. She happens to be Meghan Hildebrand and her work is amazing. Go have a look for yourself.
