Last night after enjoying Uncle Alan's cake, it started to rain a bit. With a thin but intense line of thunderstorms approaching, the dusk light turned the sort of semi-surreal greenish that might otherwise suggest a tornado, but it was apparent that it was merely from the odd circumstances of dusk + clear weather + aproaching storm.
In any case, the 8:30pm light was limited but gorgeous.
With the lack of light I didn't expect much in the way of sharpness from my hand-held 125mm Voigtländer attempts, but I had high hopes for the color, and was not disappointed.

While the color is fine in all the photos, that drop exploding beside the Chickadee is wonderful.
