Wandering around the outside of the temple I happened across this scene of a woman making an offering to her god. Clearly this furnace has been has been in service for quite a while. If you look closely you can see that it's raining - you can see the water running off the roof line at right. My guess is that the worshiper is trying to keep the rain off her face with her hand.

Yesterday's photo was a view to the north. Today's swings around to the north-west. The sun is out of the frame to the left but the patchwork of clouds leads to the grassland under the dark clouds to be bathed in light while the grassland under the blue sky is wrapped in shadow.

We headed over to this patch of water to see three relatively young alligators - but my photos of them suck, to put it politely. However, I rather liked this view to the north. In the background to the left the rain is pouring down from a passing thunderstorm while the trailing edge of a different storm hangs overhead.

On the horizon are two of the landmarks my captain uses to navigate - the radio mast just left of center and a cement plant just to the right of the white cloud.

Having crossed an expanse of inundated grassland, we turned into a firebreak canal in search of some alligators and that was when I got the shot below. It's a handheld 3-shot, 4EV HDR, finished in a beta version of onOne Software's Perfect Photo Suite 7, which is due for general release on October 31!.

The vertical framing of this shot has changes the overall exposure with the layer of cloud above the aircraft more dark and ominous looking. The sun is setting on the far side of the cloud wall with rays of sunlight streaking through the gaps in the clouds lighting them up like they're on fire while sheets of rain fall on the communities just inland of the coast.
