Country Life

There are times when I travel by a particular location and think "I have to photograph here someday." The following photos are part of that waiting, waiting for the right lighting or the inspirational muse to strike me. There has been some logging happening near my home. Everyday to work I drive by this pile of logs with big equipment parked in this field. Everyday for the past few weeks I have been thinking "I have to photograph this!" Tonight while returning home the right moment, the right inspiration, the right light.... All of these photos were taken on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4. It's a good thing I stopped tonight, as when I drove down my road to my house a log truck backed up and began loading the logs! So, enjoy a touch of the Country Life through the eyes of Clantzmedia!

No Bluffing

Image
This isn't the begginning of post about April Fool's day. That's no bluffing. On a random nice Saturday in March a road trip was in order. The sun was shining, I collected some good company and hit the streets. Driving a couple hours, we landed at Chimney Bluffs State Park and were ready for adventure. Being March and having rained, we figured the trails would be a little bit muddy... Some places were like little ponds while others looked like a flat out obstacle course for trucks and ATV's. We tried our best to navigate around the muddy spots, but part way through, it was realized to be a lost cause. My sneakers are still covered in mud. The view, would be worth it. Passing mile markers and friendly hikers with their furry friends enjoying the fresh air, the view unfolded!! The clouds were moody at times, beautiful always. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, small droplets began to fall. Then they became harder and larger. A couple went by and mentioned ...

Bluebrids, Swallows and Strawberries

Image
Bluebirds make me smile. I love the bright coloring of their feathers. Today I decided it had been way to long since having my camera out. My mission: capturing the bluebirds. We have a house they frequent. I have been keeping watch to see what times may be best to photograph. I was up early and snuck out the back door with Austin (my rescue dog of about 12 years) hoping to catch a glimmer of blue. A glimmer is about all I caught! Those cute little creatures are fast! They were going about their daily routine of feedings. One bird was hunting, while the other was patiently waiting for the food to return. When the other returned, there was a transfer of breakfast from one beak to the other. Then the process began again. They were uncertain of my presence and I, at times, got an evil eye... or maybe it was a curious one. The challenge was focusing on them. I have gleaned knowledge from other photographers to focus on an eye... easier said then done!! ...

Stick Out Your Tongue...

Image
...and say aaahhhh!! There was a recent day in March when I was on my way to work, large fluffy snowflakes were falling. I was a bit irritated at first. I am done with winter and ready for the blooming of spring flowers, thoughts and ideas! As I looked up, I had an urge to try to catch some. I was running late and so I didn't. When did life become so busy that there's no time to stick out your tongue and catch a snowflake? When did I decide I couldn't take a split moment from the hustle to tap in to my inner child and have some fun? The entire drive to work I pondered my actions. There really is a need for slowing down and enjoying the little things that come to us. My mind was contemplating the moment I lost... I would have stared up at those flakes, head tilted back, tongue out catching flakes. Maybe even arms outstretched and twirling slightly to see how many would fall on my tongue. The thoughts of this brought about elation. Note to myself, do not lose these mome...
