416 fire ... an evacuee saw this and cried .. it gave her hope and made her grateful to return to her home .. and that’s what makes it beautiful

Sometimes it just feels like you can reach up and touch the Sky

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this photo in a wooded trail area behind my house at the time .

Time

It was sunset and walking the dogs was a familiar habit . One day I notice the big puffy what some call “weed” and I thought it was beautiful

Lighting

When the sun sets behind the hills and the forest glimmers with a subtle light .. the shadows appear to bring out colors you didn’t realize

Equipment

I leaned down and used my iPhone to take an upclose picture

Inspiration

To me what everyone else sees as a weed is one of the prettiest things

Editing

In post I simply turned up the contrast and down the brightness and shadows .. this makes an sppearance of colors where the naked eye sees white

In my camera bag

I am a big fan of the iPhone .. when hiking it is the easiest and most efficient way to capture all the beauty that surrounds us .. I also am a Nikon fan for long shots or moon shots that the iPhone simply can not do

Feedback

I encourage anyone who carries a cell phone to take it out of their pocket and snap something you see everyday .. then and only then you realize what great things most people pass by without even noticing
