The white house where the rainbow ends dates from the 19th Century. The current owner’s mother, Clara Fader, died recently at the age of 107 after living in that house for 80 years!

Ashland oregon Rainbow Sunset

6/6/23 Ashland Rainbow Sunset

Today’s photo comes from a little over two weeks ago, when Ashland had perhaps the most spectacular sunset I’ve ever encountered. Not only was the sunset incredible in its own right, but a (sometimes double) rainbow appeared to go along with thunder and lighting. In fact, a few seconds after I took this photo, lightning shot straight through the rainbow.

Last night there was a rather spectacular storm in Southern Oregon. I didn’t have my camera with me so I had to settle for this short video with my phone. We had our first softball practice of the year. With the rainbow and lightning striking all over the place, it was awesome.

Today is another great day to be a Raider.

RAW vs jpg (#6 or 7 or something)

I have mentioned several times before that there are situations where images shot as jpgs are “throw aways” that had they been shot in RAW format could be salvaged.

Today’s comparison is one such example. With a rainbow outside a dimly-lit gym, I had the choice of shooting the rainbow and getting a nearly black gym (above) or shooting the action on the court and getting a white sky (not shown). By shooting in RAW I was able to process the above image to come up with what you see below.

By the way, Ashland won last night, advanced to the Sweet 16 in state, and will be playing in St. Helens on Saturday. The winner moves on to the Elite 8 round.
