"Woman Falls Off Second Story Porch Roof While Taking Early Morning Photos of Foreboding Sky." This could have been me! Seeing a photo opportunity I stepped barefoot onto my slick rain-coated, rail-less porch roof to catch this view. I started to slip and caught myself right at the edge of the roof, none-the-worse for wear, but now a bit more wary of weather conditions and proper foot attire!
Glad you're safe. Foreboding skies indeed!

Or the obituary page. Silly old biddy! Look after yourself!
ReplyDeleteWe daily photo bloggers are a dedicated bunch risking life and limb to get that great shot. About two years ago, I slipped and fell flat on my face in a puddle of water on a patio in my back yard. I was going out to take some rain shots and stepped on to the patio with the wrong kind of shoes and whoosh, down I went. The funny thing is how I held the camera up and out of the water to protect it but my clothes were quite a mess.
ReplyDeleteI love watching clouds. Would have been awful if you had fallen from that porch. be careful!
ReplyDeleteWow! The ends we go for that 'perfect' shot.
ReplyDeletefor some reason, the pic wouldn't load well for me today - loads mostly on top of a dark header area. glad you are safe!
ReplyDeletehat was far to close for comfort! I'm glad you were able to steady yourself!
ReplyDeleteA 'Take your Breath Moment'.
ReplyDeleteI have the same problem as TexWisGirl. Odd.
ReplyDeleteSecond story porch without a rail? No, thank you! Next time wear a safety harness, Kate!
The porch once had a sturdy wood railing, but it deteriorated and we never had it replaced. Since the kids are grown, we didn't feel we needed it since it is off a back bedroom and we seldom use it. Before we sell the house (which is going to be sooner than later as I want downsize) we will need to replace the railing.
DeleteYou are too much! I'm glad you didn't fall!
ReplyDeleteWhat's with the dark covering over your photo?
ReplyDeleteWhew! Glad that you are OK.
ReplyDeleteThose are headlines we would not like to see Kate! You did capture a dramatic shot though, nice work :)
ReplyDeleteGreat dramatic storm photo -- glad you weren't injured while capturing it!
