For this Sunday, I am going back to an image from quite a while back. I often refer to the need to look for photographic opportunities in all directions. This includes looking down from time to time, as sometimes we find a gem right at our feet.
This image came from one of those moments of observation…
As I was walking back to the parking lot during a dog agility event, I noticed these beauties on the forest floor. As there were plenty of people around, I took the opportunity right away to capture this little scene.
The composition of this image violates some of the standard rules for good photography, but it works for me. I have actually looked at this image mirrored along the vertical axis, and it feels off in some way. I think that the part that works is created by the lines that I managed to capture, even though the hero is on the left hand side. I’m curious what you think about this.
Another example of what might be captured right at our feet is in ‘A Thursday Throwback – 3‘. Also, I was lucky to get this shot while I could, as both mushrooms became casualties of foot traffic later…
