Coyote Pond Park

Photography: Coyote Pond Park

Despite a hard week, I rose early yesterday, faced the rain, and spent two hours in a nearby park capturing bird photos. Creeping through the grass without a sound, tucking my camera into my rain jacket for safekeeping during downpours, and focusing only on the birdsong offered unexpected joy. It’s comforting watching the world through a lens, away from anything but the sounds of nature.

Although I’m taking classes right now to photograph people, my first love will always be the outdoors. And while I’m getting better at using my camera in manual mode, I haven’t achieved the crispness I want yet. Let me know if you think these are headed in the right direction and if you have a favorite photo. I hope you have a great rest of your week!
