BEAUTY HIDING

BEAUTY HIDING

     Coming home from work yesterday morning late, I had spied a yellow rose appearing somewhat  hidden in the bush behind a few leaves. I loved how it looked and decided later after sunset I would bring out my camera, tripod, shutter release cable and take a few pictures of it and see how it would  turn out. It did not! I had hoped working with the bush and shutter speed, the sun had set behind the horizon almost straight in line with my lenses, and using a UV filter, I'd squeeze off at least one good shot of many. 

     I did not see an eye catcher when reviewing the photo's this morning. Frustrated I turned to look out the office/studio window and noticed it was coming sunrise, with very light moisture or fog in the air to slightly defuse the sun light and the rose bush bright. 

     Well, you can imagine what I did. Grabbed my camera and tripod. Ran down the stairs, carefully, I am to damn old to trip and fall. Cinched my robe tightly so as not to embarrass myself and snapped off a couple of shots focusing on using my f-stop. 

     And I was quite happy with the outcome when looking at the pictures. And critically thinking I could have done better. Nonetheless, enjoy.

Happy Mother Days.
