Meadows are always an inexhaustible source of material for photography, be it flowers with interesting textures, insects that haunt flower beds, birds or even in the best case a rabbit :D
Although it may sound too amateurish, landscape can be a serious task, most often when the wind gets its "fingers" in.
Suddenly you stumble upon a floating leaf, and the wind ruffles your strings just when you have everything perfectly focused.
In addition to quality equipment, sense of beauty, creativity, does photography require more patience than we think?
Comparing my partner and myself, who above all have totally different aesthetics, he is quite impatient, while I am able to play around one scene for dozens of minutes.
Here I passed the test of patience given to me by the wind, exposure time 1/800. The wheat fields are now in full glory, the ears are about to ripen, swollen, crispy texture.
It's just tempting for a close up.
When was the last time you hung your camera on your shoulder and headed aimlessly, recording moments that seemed "perfect" to you, but in essence it's just everyday life.
The most beautiful golden brown, unfortunately, the wind didn't usurp only me, entire wheat fields were blown down due to merciless gusts. This means that the sight of such a lush ear of wheat is rare.
During the hottest days, as the sun sets behind the horizon, you can hear the crackling of ripe wheat grains.
Tireless nectar collectors, found on the purple flower of Xanthium strumarium, it looks divine until it ripens, after which it turns into a prickly nightmare that you will have a hard time shaking off your clothes.
A plant to observe and admire from a distance.
An obstacle in the way. Recently after a couple of consecutive rainy days we found a field of slugs, the tops of the plants had few on instead of flowers, is it snail blooming season or I'm missing something out?
It seems that they are now in the phase of changing altitude, so lower plants no longer satisfy them, straight into your face location let it be!
I haven't been around in the open fields for a long time, it was fun to mark all the changes that summer brings to us quietly, fight winds and enjoy the immeasurable breadth.
