Highlights by the River
This is a photo I took down by the river near my home. Its some of that tall fuzzy-topped grass that grows along the banks. This was taken in the early morning light – around 8:00.
In addition to the quality black and white processing adds, the lighting makes this image happen. The sun was behind and slightly above this scene. The bright areas that look like lights are created by the sun illuminating stalks of this same type of grass on the other bank, across the river. And, of course, I tweaked the image a bit – darkening the edges for dramatic effect.
This is not my typical type of image. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment. And, if this photo appeals to you, feel free to share it with friends.
