Late Winter, Early Spring Aerial Composition

My intent was to use my Mavic 3 drone to capture colorful spring buds in the old growth forest on High Point Lake, near the Piedmont Environmental Center.  The buds were not quite far enough along for a color photo.  Instead, monochrome made for a much more interesting composition of the fractal branching of hardwood trees.

Seeing the Mundane

Contemplative photography encourages us to turn off the noise and distraction continuously streaming from our conscious mind, and instead, be present in the moment, and without prejudice or expectation, be open to seeing beauty and visual interest in the mundane.

This detail, from the house I posted a few weeks ago, shows signs of significant structural damage and decay. In my view, this is what makes the composition so interesting.

Stay cool and safe!
