Quiet Contemplation

I was going through my pictures from our walk on Sunday afternoon - phew I did take a lot!!!  I hadn't realised how trigger happy I am with my camera. I see something I like and I shoot. There is method in my madness though, I think the more I take the better the chance of getting a decent shot - although there is a lot of rubbish in amongst it  I'm afraid.
This picture I quite like!!  I think it looks a nice and peaceful setting and like a place you could go and sit and contemplate life in general.


Linking up today with

I remember waaaay back in college being told in a photography class that for every 100 photos taken, hopefully you will get one you like. I've followed that advice and am extremely trigger finger heavy too. What the heck! Easier to delete a bad photo than wish you had taken more after the fact :)

Yes, take lots and lots of shots and you`ll usually find a beauty. That`s the great thing about digital. I would love to read a book on that bank.

It most certainly looks like a place to contemplate anything!

Sometimes you do need quite a few shots as it is hard to know how they will come out. You have managed a really nice picture with the colours.

That is an amazing photo. And I agree: just keep taking more and more pictures! (Although hubby does tell me sometimes that I'm using all my film) ;)
