Perfection Connie! Perfection! #1484430Katherine Kuhn September 04, 2012
Love your effects on this one, Connie! Beautiful!Connie J. Bagot September 04, 2012
Thanks Dayna and Kathy. I honestly didn't use any effects---it was another windy day so maybe that is what you are talking about? #10308589Stephen Zacker September 04, 2012
I am amazed at how you can make such wonderful images of such rural countryside. I see a coffee book in the making :-) #10308735Stefania Barbier September 05, 2012

beautiful shot #10309319Michelle Alton September 05, 2012
I can NEVER figure out what the heck to do with a fisheye lens. Wow! You've really nailed this composition and perspective. #10309557Connie J. Bagot September 05, 2012
Thank you so much. #10309601Katherine Kuhn September 05, 2012
Yup -- guess so. Your wind must be truly significant to get the wonderful movement of the grasses, or did you use a ND filter too?Connie J. Bagot September 05, 2012
I was shooting at 1/12th sec...pretty slow but no nd filter. I can't remember the wind blowing unusually hard that evening so am guessing it might have been about 20mph. :) #10309828Connie J. Bagot September 05, 2012
Lol. I am talking in circles. I mean I remember it being windy but not with gusts up to 50mph like we get sometimes! #10309831Gail Sullivan September 05, 2012
