To rub it in even more - I am really enjoying this weather.  :D
Then again, millions of years of evolution took me to South Asia, no wonder I like hot weather.

Tell me you make a living taking pix...those are no ordinary pix....everything you post is truly spectacular.

As for the heat...I think we're screwed...George Carlin had a bit about climate change and our impact on Earth....Earth will be fine...we're screwed. (He used different language.)

That said, where I was once a winter person...loving the cold...as I get older my tolerance for winter has diminished greatly....summer is now my fav and I LOVE the heat....my wife  (who was born in India) complains about the heat and I think to myself...this isn't even India hot...I've been in India when it's hit 46 C.....bet you could take some awesome heat pix.

In law there's a Latin maxim that gets bandied about...res ipsa loquitor.... ("rays" "ip' - sa" "law - kwi' - tor") the matter (thing) speaks for itself....it applies to your pix....your equipment is good enough and you definitely know what you're doing.

I hear you re: treatment for free...when I was younger, a friend of my parents came to me for professional help...he was in dire straits...I helped and handed him a ridiculously low bill b/c I had no concept of how to bill properly...but even that bill shocked him and he said something to the effect of "I didn't know you were going to charge me...I just thought b/c you were starting out I'd give you a little business" to which I replied "It's not business if I'm doing it pro bono"...he never paid....and he never did bring me any paying work.
