soliloquy

I found this beech leaf on a dirt road exactly like this. Looks like it's on stage about to give a speech.

shot it with my legacy OM 35mm f2 lens. I really should use it more often.

because of the vicious horse and deer flies, I didn't get much else today. They were relentless.

Bah. I just realized I spelled soliloquy wrong. I has a dumb.

I like this one WD, the hard light works really well, it gives it a very dramatic feel.

It's wonderfully sharp in just the right place. The lighting is perfect! :thumbup: Well spotted and very well taken. :clap:

thanks guys. It was doubly amazing because I didn't park in my normal spot - if I had I'd have run it over and missed it completely.

very cool find and capture - love the texture and detail produced by the hard light

It's funny, the light looks harsher than it actually was, but I like the drama of it.
