Dust In The Wind

Catch The Wind

Donovan

 

In the chilly hours and minutes

Of uncertainty

I want to be

In the warm hold of your loving mind

To feel you all around me

And to take your hand

Along the sand

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

When sundown pales the sky

I want to hide a while

Behind your smile

And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find

For me to love you now

Would be the sweetest thing

T'would make me sing

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

 

Another bit of Macro fun for me this afternoon, trying new things. Todays personal challenge was to try and photograph a dandelion, with smoke rising through it. Found the dandelion easy enough (Well, my wife did..). The smoke was from 3 x incense sticks underneath it. The house never smelt so good!!!

I dont own a flash, so I used a torch to light everything up. Took a few attempts, but knocked out a few images in the end that I was happy with.

Used a reflector underneath everything, to try and bounce as much light as I could onto the flower and the smoke.

A good challenge, and I learned something new.

I do however, need to get a flash sometime...maybe after I'm re-employed...Ha!

Anyhow, hope you like "Catch The Wind"

Cheers, Mike
