Standing in a field looking at the stars - life doesn't get much nicer nor more peaceful.

You know it’s the all too brief Bluebell season. You ponder options for lenses, DoF, time of day (lighting), but in the end you just have to get there. They’ll show you what they want when they want, and it matters not if you only had your phone with you. Simplicity, see…?

But I will be back soon my lovelies!

Simplicity, a few poles in the water. At first sight just poles, however details are preserved in post processing.

Petit azuré en toute simplicité

Eastwoods Park - Iowa

 

Walking the local park area looking for anything unusual or unique. I know, not many of us have seen a dandelion in full bloom!

 

Yes, of course I'm kidding, but for some reason this one caught my attention!

How simplicity makes my heart sing among the complexities of life.

 

100x: Things that warm the heart

 

A jar of daisies and forget-me-nots.

One of my attempts at the "Looking Close... on Friday" theme "Zipper".

 

Shot with an Agfa "107 mm F 4" lens on a Canon EOS R5.

Cool versus warm light, straight lines, color, this location keeps attracting me.

The quality or state of being simple, unmixed, or uncompounded; as, the simplicity of metals or of earths.

I put the word simplicity in quotes not because I really intended to name the shot that, mostly because it was another lesson in a long procession of lessons that I've learned doing this hobby. Usually on my nightscapade trips I end up having "great" ideas pop into my head, after long days of hiking/working/traveling I'll have lightbulb moments spontaneously while out roaming under the stars. Then when I'm behind my computer putting in the grunt work I'll often think to myself "what in the hell was I thinking?" This is the result of one of those spontaneous lightbulb moments.

 

This is a shot taken up in the Uinta Mountains in Utah, I was originally going to hike to the top of Bald Mountain and get a large pano from the summit, but I arrived at the trailhead late and was unsure of the snow/trail conditions (which was a good call as I learned the next morning on my climb up). Instead I scouted a meadow below the mountain that had some nice high-elevation alpine ponds with incredibly clear water and some interesting boulders scattered about. I framed this picture with the idea that it would just be a simple scene, a calm/clear pond with a lone rock poking out set before a beautiful Milky Way Core. Except I, again, forgot how utterly nightmarish it is to edit tracked shots with trees. Ugh.

 

12 shots for this one taken with my Nikon D800E and Sigma Art 50mm lens on a Sky Watcher Star Adventurer. Sky shots are 3 minute exposures at ISO 800 and f2.8, foreground shots are 3 minute exposures at ISO 1600 and f1.8.

Hills, sky, clouds. That's enough to get excited about the simplicity of Tuscany.

Yesterday I had time to reflect and was thinking that sometimes we take for granted the very same things we should be most grateful for. At times we find ourselves so busy rushing around, juggling different tasks simultaneously, typing on keyboards (like I am doing right now) instead of talking to each other in person.

 

Being grateful is not convincing yourself that everything's great, as sometimes life throws challenges at us. Being grateful is choosing to focus your attention on what you care most and appreciate. Such as, being outdoors and enjoying the sun setting down (I’ve yet to experience a sunrise) on a rural scenery not far from home.

 

So simple, and yet so beautiful.

just a reflection

I sometimes find that the most dynamic shots are those where the elements within are kept to their most simplistic.
