hallerbos (up close)

“I felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery—air, mountains, trees, people. I thought, “This is what it is to be happy.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

I do have a dark side.

I don’t have a macro lens or a set of extension tubes.

It turns out I also have a lighter, brighter side which I though I would share today as part of Lucile’s Photo 101 Rehab.

None of these images have been edited, each are as shot. All were captured this afternoon, during a picnic in the woods with my son.

Part of an experiment to explore my lighter side.

*all shot with nikon d700 and nikkor 70-200 f/4 lens, no edits*

It’s not about me.

It’s about him.

The guy in the photo.

He’s doing.

What I should be doing.

So.

My contribution to this week’s Weekly Photo Challenge from The Daily Post at WordPress.

“Look: the trees exist; the houses we dwell in stand there stalwartly.
Only we pass by it all, like a rush of air.
And everything conspires to keep quiet about us, half out of shame perhaps, half out of some secret hope.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Duino Elegies
