Get closer, find more colors!
One of the basic “rules” in photography that I’ve heard over and over in the 25 years or so since I started to explore photography with more than a casual holiday shooter’s interest is to “Get Closer, Get Better Pictures!” While a good zoom lens is a good thing to have, there’s not really any substitute for using your feet to “zoom”.
Late Summer Colors
Seeing and photographing vibrant colors does well for a mostly black-and-white street photographer sometimes! That’s why I’m glad I spent a few hours on a nice Sunday outing to go the Alnarp Agricultural University, outside Malmö, Sweden. I’ve been there so many times through the years but I still find things to photograph, since each time they have some new plant or flower on display.
'tis the season for flowers!
Even though it happens every year it sure feels nice when the colors in nature shifts from brown, black and gray to a more diverse palette , including green and red and purple! Spring is here and the warm weather we’ve had for at least a week has jumpstarted nature into spring. All over flowers and leaves have popped into existence and I am all for it!
