A moment of magic photographed last week. I’ve spent many hours in the field cutting a frustrated figure and leaving the field with nothing that matches my definition of ‘good’.
A storm was due this week and I knew that if I put in the hours and employed the heart I would stand a chance of leaving with some powerful content. I observed the sky as it covered with clouds for about an hour, then this mother and calf moved into position and finally got the image.
I put in the hours that day and invested a considerable amount of heart and soul. The negatives of life provide the emotional energy to invest in imagery. What an image.
