Usually, I get up close and personal with flowers; but embracing something new feels good! I spent an hour in one spot on the edge of Northmoreland Lake trying my best to shoot intentionally — crouched, standing, sitting, laying — and always looking for the light. I like this shot best because, unlike my typical tight shots, it shows context. Although I still used my familiar favorite 50mm lens, shooting with an aperture of f3.5 took me outside of my comfy f1.4-f1.8 zone. Here's to change and growth and all things new!
