I was wondering if you used a polarizing filter for this photo shot?

I don't have filters or a set formula for processing photos.  I sometimes play around in Aperture but more recently I am simply using Photos on my iMac, because it is Apple's news software and I want to see how it works.

 

I have a topic running in the Photography and Arts Forum if you are interested and want a better idea of what I like to shoot.

Starting to ease up here after heavy rain since about 3am.

Have to drive to CM tomorrow so hopefully it's gone by then.

We are hoping the same thing since we are going over the hill on Friday.

I've been over the hill for years.

Flooding in several places where I hadn't seen flooding before - particularly NW of town where I kick around.   Parts of the embankment at the 2nd Buddha Cave 'Tam Pra' is washing into the river.  In India, they would call those steps a 'ghat'.   Coincidence, but I just climbed the hill over top  - up to the summit.  Got some photos. 

 

 

Some photos from atop hill alongside river - across from Pattaya Noi. . . . . .

 

Map is of proposed walking/jogging/bicycling route around the hill. Red line is existing path.  Dashed red line is proposed path - to make it circumvent the hill, about 2.75 Km.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yesterday, it rained the whole way from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai but wow what a beautiful day it is today.

Raining like an SOB currently

For us, it rained all morning and was only able to walk the dog about an hour ago.

Very heavy rain overnight.

Why is there so much smoke haze at this time of the year? Yesterday I noticed there was a lot of smoke haze over Phayao. Today the haze is bad and the smell this afternoon is  bad. I have seen some local fires but with all the rain and water about it is strange

Do not adjust your set. The haze is due to corn burning. Your blue sky will resume momentarily  (approximately 9 months from now). 

papa planning pilgrimage to CR next month.

hope no too smokey

Not too smoky yet, but it's getting a bit nippy in the mornings now. 

papa can sleep in late no pom pom

We have had a heavy fog this morning but no rain.  We did drive through one brief shower on the way home yesterday.

Coming down very heavily now.

We are getting some rain and thunder right now.

Great weather the last couple of days.

 

The last 3 mornings we have had clear nights but heavy fogs from about 0630 for a few hours. This morning a light fog but this afternoon very heavy rain for about 40 minutes.  It was great for the garden.

After the best looking rice crop for years it's not looking quite so good now after all the late rain.

I know what you mean.  It is all lying down on the job around here and there is too much water on the ground as well.

It's just gone 5 here and it's pitch black outside.

Looks like heavy rain continuing for hours.

Coming down in torrents, looks pretty wide spread.

Glad they got some of their rice in.

Anyone else but me noticed it's been raining?

 

Broke out the hoodie jacket to walk the dog this morning.

 

 

Been raining off and on a few days here

 

Foggy mountain morning.
