A Whole Lot of Practice And Little Bit of Luck

Landscape photography can be tricky. When shooting landscapes you are trying to create and evoke a certain feeling. Practice definitley makes perfect. However sometimes the awesome shot comes from a little bit of luck. My favorite shot from this evening at Northmoreland Park was just that, a lucky shot. I was focusing in on another shot when something caught my eye. I turned ever so slightly to my right and there it was. The light was coming through the leaves just right. I caught the reflection of the tree on the water. It was pure magical bliss. I am not sure what made me turn to the right, but I am glad I did.

This photo for me creates a feeling of peacefullness. My body instantly relaxes when I see this photo. At the same time, it gets me excited to go out again and again to practice my photography. I can’t wait to see what other photos I capture with some practice and a little bit of luck.
