focus on life: light
Texture. Pattern. Subject. All crucially important to photography. Personally speaking, light (specifically the sunlight) trumps all. Just my humble opinion, of course. I captured this first shot early in the morning as the sun streamed in, highlighting my small harvest. I love the shadows and reflections.
But my favorite time is the "golden hour" - right as the sun is low in the sky. At that time even a blade of grass is transformed into something glowing and glorious.
Do you have a favorite time of day for snapping shots?

ReplyDeleteThe composition of your "harvest" is fantastic. Almost has the look of a painting. All great shots.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful light you have captured in each of these, Lori.
ReplyDeleteI especially love the second one. So nice.
I like anytime of day that is challenging. It stretches my skills as a photographer!
ReplyDeleteI think early morning and evening work well for capturing light and shadows. The tomato shot is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI love late evening as the sun is going down. Your tomatoes look yummy. Ours won't be in for another month yet
ReplyDeleteWow Lori stunning photos, love the tomatoes shot stunning, thanks for sharing and have a great week..
ReplyDeleteStunning images Lori :) The golden hour works for me, but also very early in the day, just after first light, that can be spectacular :)
ReplyDeleteWell, all your shots are beautiful (as always). I do however, really like how you captured the gold of the evening with that picture of the wheat, grass, weeds, whatever it is. It's gorgeous!
