“Photograph: a picture painted by the sun without instruction in art.”
— Ambrose Bierce

Follow the sun

February 08, 2015 in Black & white photography, fine art photography, nature photography
Follow the light by Amy Kanka Valadarsky

For the last few month I've been spending time with the camera in a forest park. Being literally 5 driving minutes away from home, whenever the sun is blinding me when I drive my son to the train station in the morning - I know I should hurry back, grab the camera and go to the park.

Regardless of how many times I've been there, every time I go, I see something new.

This time, I wanted to go take some pictures of the rain pond before it dries up. Walking towards the rain pond, I suddenly saw the path created by sun rays streaming through the trees.

It was there for a few minutes, then the sun moved and the path vanished. Reminded me of the stories where the sun hitting the opening in a cave wall shows the way to the buried treasures.

Pure magic, painted by the sun. A first glimpse at a new portfolio coming up soon ...
