A vibrant color captures our attention... must catch for memories, and share!

A paddle on the lake in early April. Reflections. Calm waters. A skim of ice on the water's surface in the shaded area. Beautiful colors.

A sparkling blue water lake, a paddle, a kayak, blue skies and the sun. Nature is good for the soul.

This beautiful American Black Duck drying her wings after a summer bath revealed a moment of beauty just waiting to be captured!

After the snowfall, the reflections of the island in the lake created a serene moment.

Oooh red skies, "Where's the camera... quick!" Blink and you miss it. This sunrise was followed by cloud, grey day, and raindrops, jus

At the storms end was nature's art in these Glowing Waters. I like the sun rays, peeking from behind the clouds, only show in the water. Fascinating.

Always a pleasure to watch these precious little ones.

Behind The Lens

Location

This capture was in my garden. Each day brings new inspirations to photograph. As an amateur photographer, I am always enjoying learning new things about photography. I love to share the feeling brought by each new discovery.

Time

This was an after the rain photo. An early morning capture.

Lighting

After the rain, a cloudy day, without the sun gave an interesting view of this flower. Sunlight may have drawn my eye to the water droplets. I discovered the lines in the flower with the muted lighting from the clouds.

Equipment

Canon SX60HS, no tripod, no flash.

Inspiration

The beauty of this flower epitomized the fresh feeling in the air after the rain.

Editing

I did not do any post processing on this photo.

In my camera bag

In my bag I carry 2 cameras (Canon SX60HS and Nikon d3400), Nikon lenses (Prime, and zoom), 2 extra sd cards, 4 extra camera batteries, lens cleaning supplies, 2 tripods, a notepad and pen, hammock (for waiting), lunch, a light rain jacket for me (and one for each camera),and my phone.

Feedback

Have patience and be prepared to wait for the shot is good advice. On the other hand, I like to be prepared to capture the moment at any given time. Cameras ready, clean, with freshly charged batteries, always. My bag is always ready to head out the door in an instant. Take lots and lots and lots of pictures, even multiples of the same to capture your favorites. Experiment with something new to photograph, then new ways to photograph the old favorites. Have fun!
