Beautiful and simplistic. So nice to see a change of pace and it is beautiful too.

Of course one of the best things about the photo is the way the differently slanted blades of grass hold their droplets: nearly uniform in size on the vertical, larger and more varied on the horizontal. It turns a nice photo into an arresting one that brought me back for a second and third look.

Oh — as our resident sunrise specialist, you’re free to laugh at my morning realization. I looked out, saw vibrant pink and blue bands at the horizon and thought, “Well. There’s the first Belt of Venus of the year.” Then it occurred to me: of course I only see them from my window during the fall, winter, and very early spring. That’s when the sun has moved far enough south to throw the shadow farther north, into my view. Good grief, I can be slow.

I’ll concur that this is an excellent minimalist abstraction.

Remind me … do you use the Canon 180 macro? If so, how do you find its depth? I always struggle with my Nikon 105. Also … I know you use Live view (mostly for precise focus, I believe) … but does your Canon allow for Live Preview (exposure and adjustments shown in real time on the LCD). I’ve become quite enamored of the feature on my G7XM2 (the point-n-shoot) and am now disappointed that my D600 doesn’t it (it shows a Live View image … but not one which is reflective of adjustments to speed and aperture in real time) … am seriously considering selling the D600 as used and picking up the D750. Your thoughts?

I am still trying to rid myself of the virus.Aside from that I am resting and exercising to build myself back up which is going to take a while.
Thanks for checking on me, Melissa.

I’m relieved to hear from you. Do you think you have Lyme’s? A couple of years ago something leveled me and it took awhile for me to get back to where I would say I’m well. My blood tests came back negative and the Dr. had no idea what I had, but my research suggested to me that I had it. It taught me to trust my inner voice, and to be gentle with myself.
