Columbus Botanical Garden
I think it is fascinating how this photography thing works for me. I know I have made this comment in the past (of course, I couldn’t find the post), but deciding to learn photography changed how I travel through my day. I was almost oblivious to my surroundings. Now, “I see”… the pattern of light, the shapes, the little details, the incongruities, the shadows, etc. At times, I’m amazed I’m able to get where I’m going.
It generally isn’t what I am looking at that captures my eye, it is the light or shadow, the brief movement of a critter or the splash of color on the periphery that draws my attention. After finding the little frog in yesterday’s post (Shelter Me Susan), I was wandering the garden walkways waiting for that unexpected “thing” to stop me in my tracks (hey, it happens, sometimes). Lately, it has been the bees.
This one was focused on the pollen to even notice me…

Thank you!
You are welcome. 🙂
Bee-utiful! 😉
I get what you mean about how thinking about photography can change how you go through your day. Even when I don’t have my camera, nice light will catch my eye, and I think, “oh this would be great light for …..” I feel like I haven’t had the chance just yet this spring to just wander and look. It is raining again this Saturday morning as I type. Irises are blooming around here and I’m afraid I’ll miss them before I get out to play!
Nice! You know, you could capture the irises between the raindrops… 😉
I did wander the yard yesterday afternoon with the raindrops. I still need to look closer at the shots but I don’t know if I like any enough to post.
I see the post… hurray!
