Taken while waiting for the balloons to fly at a hot air balloon festival in Howell, MI. Can you believe that on a gorgeous day like this, they never flew due to the breeze? At least I got a pic out of it all:)
Hey Christina, grass in a breeze is such a seductive subject, we see the billowy movement, the lovely languid curves and want to capture how that feels. Tough to do though, I've not succeeded yet. Your shot captures the bright summer light and the brilliant greens really well.
Nice clarity and good composition, the foreground seems a bit overexposed though, causing a lack of fine detail. Bright sunlight makes for a tough shot.
"'Life is not a journey to the grave with the
intention of arriving safely in a pretty
and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming,
"WOW! What a ride!"'
You have a good eye for a photo I reckon, the colour, shape and movement in this make for an interesting image of something very ordinary. More blown-out highlights in the grasses here, I'd suggest trying under-exposing slightly to avoid that, but it's a lovely bright summer shot.
