"This morning wasn't bad," said Sun photographer Jed Kirschbaum, who made yet another weather photograph this morning -- the other early morning photographer is off. He had noticed the light playing on the smokestacks at a previous time, which did not work, and decided to go back this  morning. As he set his angle at the end of the National Aquarium Pier, a nearby garbage truck rumbled by on another pier which sent the riled seagulls scurrying his way.

The light, and the resulting shutter speed and depth of field, had him concerned because he wanted to have the building in focus, as well as the bird. The wide angle is more forgiving with the focus area, and as it grew lighter his concern dissipated.

Remember, we want to see your weather photographs. Enter at the Flickr Photo Edge group. Entries can be made through Sunday, Feb. 17. Have them entered on the 18th and away we go. See the rules in the previous post, or look at the discussions on Flickr.
