Interesting Accident

Last night I went down to the Utica Marsh to capture some sunset images. I was hoping the normal purple wildflowers would be in full bloom so I could contrast them with the soon to be orange sunset. They were in bloom but only on the far side of the marsh. I spent my time wandering the barge canal trail next to the marsh exploring with the sunset light. As I was moving the camera from portrait to landscape mode I accidentally triggered the shutter. This is the resulting image. I wish all my accidents were this interesting… lol

Last night my daughter and I went for a walk around the block. Now out here in the middle of nowhere that means a nice little 4 mile walk. I attached my 35mm f/1.8 lens on the camera and we headed out. We had a great time and I got a chance to explore with the camera. It is something we are going to do more often. As we passed the golf course on the home stretch I couldn’t pass up the sunset…
