Walking away....

I'm walking away from the troubles in my life
I'm walking away oh to find a better day
I'm walking away from the troubles in my life
I'm walking away oh to find a better day
I'm walking away...

[Ian]

@onewing Thanks Babs, yes this is very much inspired by the beautiful photography of krista @tillycarter who's work I really admire, although this image does not compare with the amazing subtle tones that Krista manages to create in so many of her photographs.

@jocasta @playswithlight @tabbycat @elaine55 @mchartwig @kwind @pflaume @shepherdmanswife @joeyc Thanks everyone for the comments and favs, very much appreciated, I'm glad you like this shot. It's actually a selfie, I liked the view of the path between the trees but it needed someone in the shot, I was the only person around ! So the low pov came from not having a tripod with me, I just placed the camera on the floor and set the timer for ten shots and walked ! The lyrics came to mind during the processing.

[Ian]

@gigiz Thanks GiGi, haha... so mean !! But that's so true, better to stand and face, although walking away always seems like the easier option ! I'm glad too that people are feeling something from the image, as you say that's exactly what photography strives towards.

[Rachel]

@tabbycat thank you! Hmmm..... I'm not much of a selfie fan for myself, I don't look too good in them you see ! I do love the way others manage to create such great images from them though.

[Kiran]

Fantastic POV and great quote to go along.

[Jawo]

Such a mysterious shot.. is this a selfie? I can feel the emotion in this pic... great capture Ian.

[Camila]

Love this Ian! Very nice composition and pov!

[Ian]

@jerwinkie Hi jerwinkie, thanks, yes, it is a selfie. I'm glad you can feel the emotion, that's what I was striving for in the shot, that sense, that urge we sometimes have to just walk away from our troubles.
