White Noise by bmnorthernlight

White Noise

Sometimes life overtakes us completely and only leaves white noise and blur in its wake.

Not even 4 weeks after my aunt's sudden death her son also died due to a sudden heart attack. It has left us all shell-shocked and bruised.

Sorry for the lengthy absence from posting and commenting - I am looking forward to getting back to it gradually. The daily routine still requires more effort and concentration than usual and lots of time in front of the laptop wasn't really helping. Thank you all for your lovely comments on my previous few shots - you are all wonderful!

wow this is so lovely!

Devastating news. Your shot is wonderfully reflective of how things all blur into one at times like these and you lose your perception of time and place. My thoughts are with you and all your family. Take care.

Thank you all so much for your kind words! It means so much!

@tiina Thank you so much for the Fav! These daisies were growing on a slope so I could easily nestle between them. I overexposed it a lot on manual and had the focus on manual too. I tweaked the white balance afterwards in raw and increased the structure/detail slightly

@bmnorthernlight Thanks so much. I would like to try to experiment with this type of effect...if it ever stops raining here.

@tiina Fingers crossed - we have had the wettest April, May and June here too!
