The last few days have been rainy and gloomy. I’m not feeling great overall, but I got to spend some time with my darling nephew. During a brief break in the storm, we went outside and took a few photographs together. Let me know what you think of these, both as a collection and as an editing style. Does it tell you a story? Are there enough varied shots? Do you have a favorite? Any constructive criticism is welcome.
Thank you for helping me grow and enjoy the rest of your week.
- These were taken with my Olympus E-M1 MarkII, using a 75-300mm lens and edited with Lightroom Classic.

Thanks, John! Are they looking sharper to you? Working on getting the quality of the image up.

You’re welcome. ☺️ I suggest turning up the ISO on some of them. Have your tried an HDR application or other app?

#16 and 17 stand out to me, partially because I am attracted to flowers and trees, but also because I recently started lessons in ikebana, Japanese flower arranging, which requires a lot of attention to form and composition. It’s hard to explain in words, but there’s a delicate balance between curve and straight lines, upright/vertical and prone/horizontal forms. I had no idea putting together a group of flowers and branches could be so complicated, which is why I seem drawn to images like the one you’ve posted here. Your choice of displaying them in black and white emphasizes the composition and form, which is great.
Your nephew is cute! Enjoy your time with him, they grow up too quickly.

I’m all about the shrooms. You know me. #6 and #7 *which looks like folks around here about the time the rain changed over to snow today). All are great, Bridgette.
