Natures reward upon reaching the top of the hill when hiking. Seen many, many foxgloves before; but, never have I ever seen any foxglove with a circular and symetrical flower at the very top. Thank you Mother Nature for alowing me the rare pleasure of such a beautiful sight, I cannot be more grateful!

Right? Thank you! I felt like I was seeing something super rare and was extremely privileged to see it, let alone get a photo of it to share with other people.

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken after reaching the top of the hill while hiking in Springfield, Oregon USA

Time

I had been making the climb to the top of that hill every morning around 10am, and that morning I couldn't believe my eyes. I'd never seen Foxgloves with a top, fully opened and circular flower before.

Lighting

I simply snapped a shot using the natural light of the midday sunshine. There wasnt a cloud in the sky that day.

Equipment

I thankfully had my cellphone with me and used it to capture that phenomenal flower.

Inspiration

Having just moved from Alaska; I knew if I didnt take a picture to prove it, nobody from up there would believe me if I told them... plus, I need to share the overwhelming beauty with all my friends, family, and anyone else who may appreciate it.

Editing

Some of my photos require a bit of editing but this particular one is au naturale... no editing.

In my camera bag

My cellphone at the very least.

Feedback

Good lighting! Dont try for the most perfect or professional looking shots, just shoot what You find beautiful, from your unique perspective. Chances are, others will appreciate a perspective different from their own and will see the beauty too.
