Once Upon a Time It was Summer

Posted by
Michael Rawluk (Williams Lake, BC, Canada) on 29 November 2008 in Plant & Nature.

A Moment in Photographic History:
Italian photographer Giacomo Brogi died November 29, 1881.

A Photographic Quote of Note:
What's really important is to simplify. The work of most photographers would be improved immensely if they could do one thing: get rid of the extraneous. If you strive for simplicity, you are more likely to reach the viewer.

This reminds me of mowing during the summer up at my father's! I love mowing there, it's so relaxing to just sit on the John Deere and make sure your lines are straight! A beautiful reminder.

Fantastic shot!! And I am a huge fan of simplicity. Love the quote. Ah, for those long, hot summer days. Sigh. I'll have to save this date to refer to in another month or so when I'm freezing.

Th-th-thank you. Warmth at LAST. I like this better than the perfect dandilion photos. Love the way you made it off to the side and I think there is a plucked one on the right. Way cool, with it's curling stem.
