Playing with Light (pictures)

[Kirsten]

We had some sunny days at last, so I was trying to do some backlight shots against the setting sun. Would have prefered this with persons or animals, but I had no one to model for me... But I still need some more practice for this kind of photography anyway!

[Karen]

Wow! Thanks for sharing them with us!

Thank you so much!

I'm on my way to model for you --- I can't stop looking at the pictures, of course being a horse nut I love the round bales of hay.
Thanks for letting us share these pictures, they are fabulous- All of them would make good models for paintings.

Intricate and more delicate than the finest old lace
Yet sturdy and secure in its exuberance for life
Summer captured in every dainty petal and frond
Curves refined enough to make
An architect jealous
A green explosion as defined as any firework
But less fleeting
Captured in the lens to hold
Against the inevitable coming of winter

I love your photos!
When you said on FB that you were going to delete your older photos, it really made me sad... LOL

You have such an eye for photography. I am always impressed with your work!

[Bengalz]

Beautiful and so surreal!! You have an amazing eye and a wonderful touch with your camera.

The airs smells ripe, and thick with memory
As the late summer sun sets low in the sky
The meadow cast in burnt umber hues
Silhouetting the lumbering forms of baled hay
Curled in mighty wheels and left in place
Timeless as autumn's inevitability
Storing the summer's growth, seed heads and stalk
Grains grown to capture the energy and strength
Of all the spring rains and summer sun
Cut, captured and bundled just so
As men have done for centuries
Holding all of summer's treasure in tight packages
To carry livestock and humanity
Through the long dark days
Of winter yet to come.

Thanks a lot for your kind words everyone. And wow, Karen, these are some stunning poems again! You really have the ability to put in words what I tried to express with my pictures!

A camera in your hands turns everything into a real work of art! I can't begin to tell you how much I respect and admire your talent. Thank you for letting all of us enjoy your marvelous photography!

Would you give Luna and Lily lots of lovies from me?
