Flat Rock Park, Columbus, GA

I’ve been a little quiet.

A little? How about speechless!

I wasn’t asking for a comment.

And yet, you get one none the less. Go ahead, prove me wrong.

I don’t…

Don’t what? Have to prove anything? How about you stop arguing with yourself and get to typing.

I… never mind.

I find it interesting I choose a Wednesday, which is normally Wordless Wednesday, to start using my words again. The irony is not lost on me.

I went to Flat Rock park late Sunday afternoon to get in a little walk and see what I could find with the camera. I incorrectly chose to use my 50mm lens and ended of being overwhelmed with all the macro subjects I was finding. I ended up leaving the park earlier than I anticipated due to neglecting to account for the beautiful weather and the amount of people who also decided to visit the park. It was easier to return another day…

Tuesdays at work is my long day. There is a standing meeting that goes from 4-5pm. I’m not a fan but dutifully attend. Lately I have been going home around 3:30pm and attend the meeting (Zoom) from the comfort of my apartment. As soon as it was done, the cats and I had dinner before I was heading out the door. This time the macro lens mounted on the camera and my ring light packed in the camera bag.

The hour I spent exploring the park washed away the whole day. Work? What is that?

I was almost back to the car when I found a favorite subject… a dandelion. I captured quite a few images with various viewpoints and compositions, but this last one is the keeper for the evening.

And Karma, it was your voice I heard as I converted this one back to color. It was complete as a B&W but didn’t “feel” right. Thanks!
