Project 365 - Day 25 (Yes, My Theory...Which is Mine)

I was just looking for something, anything to shoot, trying to just find something interesting when it hit me: a good picture can (theoretically) be made anywhere.  So I pulled into a back lot that happens to be next to a prairie grass restoration area and park and:


A Coming Sunset and Jetstream
While the photo isn't technically perfect (the sun is blown out), it still works well for me.  The very edge of the parking area in the lower left flows into the beautifully lit prairie grass as the sun seems to be cupped in the horizon of the treetops. And the starburst effect around the sun?  I dig it.

I liked the rest of the shots, as well.  I hope you do, too.  It's a surprisingly peaceful, out-of-the-way spot.

Along with the way the setting sun lit up the grass, I really like the fine detail captured here, especially the feathery strands and bits in the top-right 1/3 of the frame.








 Yeah, it makes a nice B&W, too, huh?










 When in doubt, get low and get close.













Or...get lower and closer still.
