OK so who can guess what the requirements were for this shot????
It was large aperture, subject in the foreground in sharp focus, background related to subject but in soft focus. Easy peasy…these are the kinds of photos I love taking, especially outdoors in soft light. I submitted this one just cuz it had other techy stuff going for it like rule of thirds, converging lines, texture, a few specular highlights because of the water, and the all important histogram was perfect.
BORING.
The reason I like this one? These are the steps from our back deck (which we designed and built ourselves) down into the yard, a place where I spend I lot of time…good time…and so it is near and dear to my heart. Love it decorated with fallen, wind-blown, rained-on, scattered leaves.
This is home.
(By the way, got an A on this one. Yay me.)
Sharing is lovely...
