After running out of gas first in my 1978 Ford pickup with a bad fuel gauge, then breaking down 20minutes later with a plugged up fuel filter, I barely made it home to take Gillian out to riding lessons. As the sun started to illuminate the clouds, I grabbed my camera which I had quickly retrieved before heading back out. I was glad I did. With deepening darkness and ever more threatening clouds it wasn't long before the down pour hit. Once the storm passed I realized how good the light was and headed back out hoping to capture the KK doughnut sign. I was inspired by good friend Rick Ward who had posted a photograph of the sign last week. I thought the ever more dramatic sky would make for a nice image. Alas the lights weren't on. When I asked the girl in the takeout window to turn them on, she looked at me and said "I think the battery's run out maybe!". I'm glad she has a job to go to. Managed to photograph the Frank Harmon designed Architecture building around the corner before heading home.
Spectacular!
