Inspiration

It was rainy, cloudy and sad day. Nothing good could happened in such day. I had no power to work or to do anything useful. Just dark thoughts in my mind. And suddenly, really suddenly - rain stoped and the sun shone sharply. I looked out of window and saw this special kind of freshness in the garden when everything is so clean after divine shower. All leaves, grass blades and flowers was so colored, wet and heavy from the rain drops. Smile from the heaven caused a smile in my soul and I took my camera to make some shots outside. THIS IRIS was the biggest, the highest and I felt how it calling: “I’m here, ready to take every single shine of my lover Sun”… Like a woman who cover her beauty during lonely, sad days, but can open herself and shows the most wonderful features under a loving look falling on her… And you know she saved all the best for you, she waited, she’s ready for your love like this Iris – clean, beautiful, opened, wet…

Editing

only basic processing in Lightroom

In my camera bag

Fuji XT1 and some lenses...
