Natural Lighting

Cool, clear air accompanied me on my morning walk at home, passing flowers and trees not quite shivering but opening their buds of flowers and leaves.

Some brave few in full bloom 

others still tucked against the cool.

Scant cloud suddenly parted

just as I lifted my camera ~ 

sunshine lit up beautiful pinks

as though I had requested good lighting.

Grateful, I kept my shadow out of the frame.

“In nature, light creates the colour. In the picture, colour creates the light.”
