Simplicity. Petunia

Pebbles on the sea shore

I know who I am. I am not perfect. I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world. But I'm one of them.

details and landmarks at ahchoo-e!.

A pink cosmos stands with grace,

A garden is a special place.

Petals soft, a gentle hue,

Basking in the morning dew.

 

Against the white sky, pure and bright,

A contrast of serene delight.

No complex lines, no tangled maze,

Just nature's art in sunlight's gaze.

 

In the quiet, where it grows,

A story of simplicity shows.

Beauty is found in simple things,

Like pink petals and the joy they bring.

A floating dock at a lake, how inviting to sit and relax .

The contrast between the sky, the green field and the brown field just inspired me to make this image

The beauty of a single branch with fall's left over red leaves is often overlooked in preference of a tree full of leaves. In this case I liked the effect of the simplicity of just a few red leaves on a single branch.

A dear friend of mine told me she wanted a Tiara. So I am a bit of a smart ass so I took a picture of my ring from Pandora.

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!

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

Fog shrouded coastline.

Simplicity captures and expresses the essence of the subject.

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.

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