Flowers from the hill

 

You must have the peace and the mood, to be concentrated only on these wild flowers scattered all over the hill, to position yourself in the right direction so that the subject of this photographic safari from the edge of the village is in full light. You should be interested in how it will be framed, how the image will be composed so that it is not a simple digital mess. To have a reasonable picture, many such variables must be in the acceptable area

If everything is OK, in the end there may be a kind of result that can possibly give you some momentary satisfaction, something like: look how beautiful this flower is, how pleasant it was there smooth the top of the hill at the edge of the forest… and you waited for a bird to come out to have a full day… maybe even with a ray of light on his green-yellow-black feathers. Is it the work of a naturalist, is it photographic art, or is it pure pleasure to admire nature in favorable moments in order to know it better eventual and possibly make it visible to others?

You review the images made and you have a similar feeling. So, in the quiet of this place, you can imagine how the bird in front of you, has been sitting in this bush for a period… maybe a week, and the rosehips are less and less. At some point,… all… will end and she will have to look for another similar place, where she is protected by the thicket of thorny branches, where there is plenty of food… Does she dream of spring and the babybirds she will raise? Or is she not interested?
