This next one isn't a surprise because I took it quite deliberately yesterday. I may have taken a similar shot previously, but here it is along with what I posted on FB.
Because it's a long and arduous trek only to be undertaken by the best and bravest. |
We have had some fab sunsets lately, but with their earlier times, I have missed them as we seem to be finishing supper and the tv program that usually goes with it. Last evening, however, I had a little more time, and it looked like there was a gap on the horizon for another display. But when I looked again, the whole sky was cloud covered. Just in case it changed again, I headed to the park without much hope.
Well, the cloud didn't lift at all, so I didn't even bother taking out my camera. But I did ambulate about the park, enjoying the cool, calm and relative solitude. In time, I did take out the phone for a few shots.
This one I took as an experiment for a proper shot at another time. In addition to getting a more level photo (definitely!), I might put my tripod right in the water to eliminate some of the distracting foreground clutter. While it is a good principal to include a foreground element, this is just clutter. Or I might choose another composition entirely. (Note the cloud cover in passing.)
One more for this post. I sat on a bench for a bit, and one lonely leaf begged to have its photo taken, Autumn is coming on now, folks.
I made other discoveries on the phone, some that I knew about and others that I had just plain forgotten. Stay tuned. Unless I forget, of course, which is a rather distinct possibility.

I like the foreground grasses, but would remove the paper.
Perhaps just a little smaller so we can see it all at once.
Hey, if I can remember enough to pass the drivers test, you can remember us.
I think you should keep your phone safely in your pocket, then no more surprises.
I'm generally re-remembering how to use any camera.
I like the leaf.
I really do enjoy your artistic photographic thought processes.
By the way, my granddaughter did the same thing with my iPhone when they were here this summer.
I'm with you: I no sooner post, then discover related photos on a different camera!
