Mom and I spent Memorial Day at our favorite spot taking a few pictures of the beautiful spring time bounty at Rancho San Rafael state park in Reno. My challenge to myself was to play with light and composition. Here are a few pictures I wanted to share.
 |
The covered bridge near the entrance to the arboretum is one of my favorite places to photograph. |
 |
These Oriental Poppies were just gorgeous. I loved how the light went through the delicate leaves. |
 |
I love taking pictures of roses when the light is shining in through the top like it was here. The shadow play is amazing. |
 |
Same rose from a different angle and a bit closer up. I took this one to practice drawing or painting at some point. |
 |
Mom and I kept hearing turkeys... I remembered that the park had been raising them in the barn that was a part of the original ranch. Isn't he handsome? |
 |
His lady was out in one of the paddocks taking a sun bath... when we walked up she dropped to the ground, stretched out and started chirping. |
 |
I couldn't resist getting a few pictures of the ducks... |
I hope you enjoyed these pictures.
Love always,
Miss B
