About Photo
The amount of time I can spend outside is limited so I try to leave my home with a plan so I do not waste what time I have. The photos I have submitted were among the last taken and not what I had envisioned doing. My plan was to photograph the metal sculpture with only trees in the background. I was beginning to get very tired and out of desperation turned the camera up to get a completely different view than I had been taking. I knew what I had been doing was not working and it seemed to be my last hope of trying to salvage something from little excursion. This taught me that I need to be less restrictive on what I think I want to.
