I met it in a meadow by the river. You can also see the damage caused by drought here. Notice that the blackthorn, like most of our trees, has already shed its leaves.
I have been interested in photography all my life and remember quite well developing my first black and white films myself... My favorite subjects are...
Our trees are beginning to change color and the acorns are dropping rapidly. Low rainfall here has us just about in a full-fledged drought. This is still a good shot though!
absolutely fabulous image - the detail on the darter, the colourful setting, the perfect focus. Trees here are not as they should be either. Very sad - although it certainly doesn't spoil your image here.
Our leaves are falling already and it looks like fall because of the lack of rain this summer!
