Simplicity 1

Posted by
Denny Jump (Bellevue, WA, United States) on 21 January 2014 in Landscape & Rural.

Not 3 miles from our house, Sunset as seen from a dormant corn field while photographing geese.......Simple and beautiful. I really did nothing with saturation....What you see is what I got!

NIKON D800 1/250 second F/8.0 ISO 160 300 mm (35mm equiv.)

** Staples Singers - "Respect Yourself"

- " We do not move forward from a middle opinion, which is undemocratic but mediocratic.
We advance from a creative passion "- (Edgar Morin)

- "To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at
that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."
- Henri Cartier-Bresson.

::Words from Denny:
- My beliefs, and values, have always been strongly tied-to music, especially Jazz, and Blues.
- The following artists and lyrics seem to "sum-up" where my spirit resides:
EARTH WIND AND FIRE;
"HOLD ON TO YOUR SPIRIT,
ALWAYS FEEL YOUR SOUL....
HONOR THE MAGIC IN YOUR HEART"
; Earth Wind and Fire

Beautiful. I like the sunset off to the side letting the dramatic sky take precedence of the frame.
