Daily Shoot Free

Illustrate the word free today. Go with the first thing that pops into your head and make a photograph based on that idea

 

The first thing that popped in my head was my dog, Gertie, running free in the woods the other day and taking off after a deer! But no, I wasn't going to try and recreate that scene. My second thought was a leaf falling from a tree. I tried that but being a calm day the falling leaves were few and far between. I took a shot that I thought I could use even though the leaf was really still attached to the tree. So I ended up with this shot. As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to use it. The open seed pod and the blurriness of the background say "free" to me.
