Goodbye
An image from around two weeks back now where the light was just playing ball and the sunrays providing that little bit of glory to the scene. I have photographed a few fallen trees over the years, they provide a scene which I do feel at times is a sad one, but much more devastating is when they have been cut down in there prime. This one was storm damage although it is hard to tell as the root system is out of shot, but it was still a wonderful feature with the mist and suns rays falling all over it.
It was also the scene I chased, and I had my fall where my Nikon got damaged, me flying and cussing was quite funny but also very frustrating, I was realizing setting up my composition here that my camera was having real problems with the focus and was switching off all the time.
So, this is a goodbye image really, one to the tree as I am sure it won’t be long before someone or something will come and drag it away and cut it up. And it’s a goodbye to my first camera of which I am more upset about, not because of the expense or inconvenience, but it was my first and we have together experienced and seen so much in five years. It never once let me down and was an excellent companion to start me on my photography journey. Goodbye Nikon Z6 you were excellent, just hope you can be fixed and not also get chopped up into little bits. Now I’m off to drink a small wine and mellow with happy thoughts of future adventures ahead with a new companion.
