Every time I take a photo of a cattail, I remember the first photo I took in "all manual" at the golden hour years ago. I felt so proud of myself then. Today, I tested out my new Tamron lens and it was hard to get the focus just right (it was low light with just a tad of color reflected--this is HEAVILY edited). But I have hope to improve--I forgot to switch to RAW also. I'm a bit of a mess these days. But this photo is NOT old. I have a feeling the new album is not going to follow my own rules. Oh well!
