Fall Foliage




I love nature. She's so quietly obliging when it comes to photography. I can approach her with my Nikon in full view and she doesn't sigh, cringe or duck and weave. She's endlessly patient as I experiment with aperture and never whines, "Are we done yet?". I can take one picture or a thousand and she never tires of me admiring her beauty. It matters not to her if I spend two minutes focusing my lens on her or two hours. Her constantly changing wardrobe almost begs to be captured and she never asks what I plan on doing with my photos. They can be deleted as experimental failures of they can be posted as successful images; it makes no difference to her. She's stunningly beautiful whether I care to notice or not.

Today I did care to notice. Her colours were so vibrant set against the blue of the sky and the warmth of the sun. She left me with some burrs and two very wet feet but she also gave me some shots I'm happy to call my own. She's at her most colourful now and it was a joy to do a shoot with her. Yup. I love nature.
