Challenge: What Makes Me Happy (Standard Editing)
Collection: 2017
Camera: Nikon D750
Lens: Nikon AF-S Nikkor 28-300mm f3.5-5.6G ED VR
Location: Acton, CA

 This is Loki, one of the pups from this image, all grown up.

I heard that the wildflowers out there were out of control and just had to see for myself. My model was happy to show me the way.


Thank you all SO much for the generous votes and comments. Still struggling with motivation right now, but Deb is right - these guys make me immensely happy, and inspired my first outing in months.

Yes, I am a sucker for purple but I just love how happy the pup looks. Details and focus in this are off the charts (IMO). I'm expecting a high score on this one. My favorite in this challenge.
