How's the weather looking for tomorrow?
Around 60 degrees. It says mostly cloudy. 10-20% chance of rain.

Any chance someone wants to lend me a camera? :-\

I have an old P&S lying around but I don't think that helps... :)

Believe it or not, with enough effort I can actually read a weather report on my own :)
I was asking what that means photography-wise

It's worth it I think, but you obviously won't be able to do as much. Do you have a tripod?

Partly to mostly cloudy is perfect photography-wise. A clear sky is usually worse than cloudy. believe it or not.

I believe it. Just not all clouds. I go out to take photos of those pink & purple sunsets. Nothing quite like it.

Exactly - clouds are what adds interest and color. No clouds is boring, but cloudy at least could be dramatic.

Looks like fun, I'm interested if there's a spot available.
So far looks like there is.
I guess I'm skipping the "deadline" line and heading to the front. Happy photo-taking everybody.
Cheers!!

SF, thank you very much-again!
It was beautiful and, as usual, I learnt a bunch of new things.

Here's a decent picture so as not to leave the rest of you hanging. :)
