Fade Away

Midday, Floral, Macro

Another beautiful day in Central NY. I wasn’t going to let the day pass me by so I grabbed the camera with the macro lens and headed out the door.

I wanted to walk the trail along the canal again. I know it is a good five mile round trip and I definitely need to be active. Lazy is easy… 🙂

My focus was finding subjects for my macro lens. Should be easy. I walked the entire path and barely stopped for an image. At the end (the end where I turn around) I found a few small flowers and interesting dried up ferns (?). The minute I found these small yellow flowers, I couldn’t stop seeing them. On the walk back to the apartment I noticed everything I missed initially.

How?

I was looking, I swear.

Now I’m thinking I was off in la-la land as I was walking. It amazed me what I missed.

I got out of work early (the benefit of starting early) and went for a walk with the macro lens at the International Sculpture Garden. It was a nice day with the temperature almost reaching 60 F. This morning I woke to six inches of snow and it is still coming down strong, although the it is supposed to rain later today. Welcome to Central New York… LOL

The enjoyable weather continued yesterday. I was not going to miss the few remaining opportunities to walk around the building during lunch. I probably gobbled down my food a little too fast but it was so worth it. The warmth of the sun on my face as I searched out any little subject for my macro lens was refreshing. Of course, I really didn’t want to go back inside to finish the day…
