2015 Project 52, 2nd quarter by Winnie (bernacchiraza) - Week 19

[bernacchiraza]

Or may I say 2015 Project 33 for me?
I hope starting at week 19 is not a problem. Actually, I've already been trying to stop every week to take pictures in order to "stretch my photographic skills". I believe this thread will help me to keep it up!

The photos of this week were more for my personal records than to show them to anyone.
There was a hailstorm, and I decided to register it. I've only seen a hailstorm once, in Sao Paulo, almost 20 years ago (I think I was 9). It was one of the most fabulous hailstorms I've ever heard about, as it was raining almost little rocks, and it was actually dangerous to stay outside. I've never seen this again, but I still remember the feeling of trying to catch the rocks that was falling in the front deck, while my grandma was desperately trying to take me out of there.

This second one was way lighter (shoot in Seattle, WA), but still made me stop to look.. and shoot.

Wonderful shots, Winnie...I like the composition of the last one with the green foreground...something attractive to me ... about grass in our front yard not being affected by hailstorms. I am amazed by their resilience.
