It's been said that a rut is nothing but a grave with the ends kicked out. I have been so focused on transfers lately that I almost lost the joy of experiencing the place I was shooting.
That happens. One can get so obsessed with the final product we forget to enjoy what we are immersed in. Last week, one of Diana's professors invited us out to an egg hunt/lasagna dinner. I, of course, made my famous lasgana and we enjoyed an afternoon of friendship, fun and food.
All of that notwithstanding, I looked over the garden of our hosts and was impressed with the variety of cacti in the garden and set up the Zero 2000 on a tripod. The picture above is one of the images I shot that afternoon.
It got me out of my architectural mode and more into my "just shoot what's available" mode. I kind of felt a bit of freedom considering I was into the transfer mode of Fuji Film.
So, I hope you like it. It was a simple 3 alligator shot under beautiful conditions and, lasagna aside, a great afternoon.
Ruts can be freeing if you kick out the ends!
