Summer has arrived in the northern hemisphere and we are enjoying the long days, the warmth and heat and everything else that comes with summer. As a photographer the time around sunrise and sunset is maybe the most magical hour to be out there and shoot. And there is almost always some dramatic scene to be found. Foggy mornings are a favorite especially at a lake or river as the fog is lifting but those days are rare. Sunset at a lake is another precious moment and is intensified when clouds are present. So don't miss the magic and enjoy summer!
I've included a fitting poem in the end. I posted it before.... so here it is again!
Susanne
(an excerpt from my book "Seeing Beauty - photography as visual poetry . Available at www.blurb.com or contact me direct)
THE SUN NEVER SAYS
Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe
Me."
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky.
(Hafiz)
