After dropping off my youngest daughter at softball practice near her school today; I decided to do some hill climbing. There is a very steep hill that is on the south side of her school with a cemetery at the top. It has always looked interesting to me, but I had never gone up there. Today I had time to kill and my camera slung around my neck. So up, up and up I climbed to the top. Not with out a little huffing and puffing I must admit. Never the less, it was a rewarding climb as it gave me an Eagle eye view of the city. While snooping around on top; I discovered some fantastic red Tulips waving silently in the breeze. "What a perfect time for a long exposure", I thought to myself as those gentle red flowers swayed back and fourth before my eyes. It didn't take too many shots to get something I thought I could use. Of course, I never know for sure until I enter my super secret basement photo lab to process my daily captures. Upon returning home and entering my super secret basement photo lab; I found I was quite pleased at what I had captured. Still, they needed a little help, so a little level adjustment here, a little burn there, biff, bang, boom and you get painterly looking Tulips. At least I think so.
Happy Shooting.
