2020-11-19 the last leaves

Balancing the camera on a post over the water, to compensate the tripod I did not bring. Throwing wet leaves in the air, at the right time after the 2 sec. self timer went off... Trying several long exposure with and without flash to highlight the leaves, or not,... and only after I finished being a silly photographer,... I realised that an elderly couple interrupted their hike and observed this strange forest creature playing with the last leaves of the season. Not a picture I'm really happy with, but the moment I got caught in the act,... haha, ... has to be in the project. A bit better on black.
Beautiful

What a lovely couple to wait. If they saw the beautiful result, they would be glad they waited.

Well worth the effort.

So much effort and so worth it... it is always the times you don’t carry the tripod or camera bag that you want it.

I am sure you provided some entertainment for them ;). Lovely result.

Huge success on both counts! - capture and balancing act!

Your story is very funny M and made me smile. I too have been 'caught' doing photography things which made people looking a little strangely at me. But I do love the resulting photography and I'm sure they would too. :D

That's such a funny story. I always feel stupid when I lay on the floor to take a macro shot of something on the ground and someone walks past!

Love the image and I can relate to the crazy photographer I am sure we have all been watched in amusement as we reach stretch and squat to get just the right angle.
