1707_0890 Maurice - a photo on Flickriver

1707_0890 Maurice

            I've just come in from shooting macro in my winter garden, so what better time to post a summer image? I think I'll stick with summer at least until my knees regain some circulation...

This is my friend Maurice. Three of us - and one dog - were taking a walk from the edge of town to the river dyke when Maurice and Pat pulled up in their truck. I reacted to the light and the moment, and he's reacting to me. A chain reaction!

I usually don't monkey with the colour too much in post processing, but this time I did, by enhancing the golden glow from an evening sun. The theme here, if you haven't guessed, is warmth. Warm summer, warm light, warm friendship. Jazz great Louis Armstrong famously explained, "What we play is life." The same holds true in any creative pursuit. What we photograph is life.
