Photo of the day: September 2011

Candles Burning

This shot was taken 45 minutes after the last one I posted of this composition. At this point the moon had just set, and the peaks were getting their first hits of direct light for the day.

The lesson of the day is preparation and patience. Know when the lighting will change and sit around and wait for it to happen. Thanks for sharing this amazing series of pictures with all of us.

My grandson, Lenny... still blissfully unaware that the name on his birth certificate is Lenzo Tenzing Jean Morrison. I haven't just gained a grandson, I've got a winning score at Scrabble...

A darling picture. He sure has a unique name. Having one myself I am sure he will grow to appreciate that he isn't just some Tom, Dick or Harry.

Look carefully and you'll see that the pilot has the canopy open.

Thanks, fcortese. It's usually more sitting than knowing, of course!

Lovely family, Doylem. Sorry, but proper names don't count in Scrabble!

Its a great spot. The couple were nice enough to let me shoot them (but I took their picture first )

The only other spot that might be better is Kirribili house. But I didnt dare trespass.

Nice take on the bridge disappearing into the fog. I've seen plenty of photos showing its towers sticking up out of the fog, but this horizontal disappearance is a nice change.

Great color palette and romantic mood here.

Wonderful light. I like how the boy's shirt echoes the other colors in the frame.
