Photo of The Day - May 2023

Man shooting by hand at 8:30 in the evening is tricky. I shot this plum shrub so many times before I got one where the flower was even close to being in focus xD Anywho, same setup as the sunset pano, same evening.

You did very well, considering the circumstances😊

I also like that the color of the plum goes in the same nuance as the sky. And the blurry background makes it very beautiful!

Thanks! Yeah I had to calm down and remember my rifle breathing. Always fascinating how much similarity there is between shuttering and triggering. That said, I may try again this evening with the tripod and 50mm so there's less jittery me causing issues xD

Everything does not have to be in pin sharp focus. An old trick I used in film days (and still do) was to breathe out slowly while releasing the shutter; don't hold your breath.

Someday, when I'm mature enough, I'll get another Ducati. I love motorcycles.

I always admired Ducati's, since I don't have a garage, only a carport, I opted for something tamer. The VFR suits me just fine, unfortunately they stopped making the VFR in 2014.

It's not that I am not mature enough at 78, my body is not limber enough.

Gorgeous bike!

When I asked this artist-painter for a picture, she said how do I want her to pose. I said - just be yourself.

📊 Two hours later it suddenly dawned on me. I made it to the top. Is this what life has to offer? A precious unforgettable moment? Different levels of mindset, the energy, the air, the elevated views, the fear of height... I shall remain calm and let destiny decide. 💫
