Surprises

I stayed close to home again this weekend, and visited a local bayside park and our local community college for my photo hike. These were my favorite shots of the day.

Sometimes, well more often than not, once I download my photos, I find surprises. Things like sun flares, or little creatures, or odd effects that look like I manipulated the image with photo editing.

‘Left standing’ was my odd photo this week. The wonky Depth of Field was pure chance, or more likely a mistake, but I liked it.

  1. Curling is my favorite for many reasons, some of which you mentioned in the “wonky depth of field” it’s got movement in it! A close second is the rhythm of the bricks in your brick house shot. I like rhythm in things that I shoot, and I enjoy it in others. Nice Tara, have a great Mother’s day!

  2. Lots of variety in these. The leaf on the fence is interesting but yet gone unnoticed. “Left behind to dry” would be my caption for it.
