Wanted to do a natural light shot for this challenge. Everything I was taking outside (in the woods, etc...) wasn't working out correctly. Went to feed the horses and the setting sun was casting this warm glow light into one of the horse stalls. Grabbed a pitchfork and angled it to catch the sunlight.
Yes, that's a pile of horse dung and some hay in the background. ;^) Thought about retaking this shot the next day after cleaning up a little, but I like the context it adds to the shot so I'm leaving it as is.
Will be interesting to see how many people recognize/comment on the photo contents. ;^) Guessing this shot is good for maybe a 5.8xx? |
