of light and shadows

August 24, 2014 by Cynthia

I still have rocks to photograph, an acorn cap, and even the wings of a wasp. I am grateful for the “nature offerings” that people give to me with the simple charge of “try photographing this.” Today’s offering that called to me was a branch with many curled leaves. It is an evolving photo shoot that began with the branch on a black plate. And then, as usual, I wondered what would happen if I filled the plate with water. And then, as usual, wonderful things happened, I think.

I would say pretty wonderful. I really do love the richness that comes across.

What a magical way of thinking outside the box, er, plate. The results are beautiful and you’ve proven we don’t need to spend a fortune to be photographers.
