To reinforce my commitment to improve my camera skills I signed up for some classes at the Adult Ed center. So far I have learned the settings of my camera and have vowed not to shoot on Auto anymore. The class is now working on composition. There are homework assignments so I have been out and about town taking lots of pictures.
I have noticed a lot more things around town now that I am intently looking for photo ops all the time. It has made driving a bit more hazardous although I'm driving a lot slower. Good thing I live in a small town with lots of back roads and not a lot of traffic. I've made a lot of U-turns this week because something caught my eye.
Yesterday it was a field of fluff. At least it looked like fluff but it was actually a field of open milkweed pods - softly blowing in the wind.
I took this photo late in the day when the setting sun cast a golden glow . It would fit the prompt of Golden for Bella's 52 Photo Project this week.
I stopped by this field a few times - early and late for different degrees of light and shade. Here a few of my favorite photos.
Staying focused,
Nicely captured!

ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, and finding gold in something that evanscent is just perfect!
ReplyDeleteNice job!
ReplyDeleteStephanie! How beautiful. My friend gave me a pod like this to make a wish with at a sea retreat last week. I made my wish and let the fluffy bits fly onto the ocean waters. Thank you for sharing.
