This is one of the first photos I ever made when I decided almost 18 years ago I was going to learn this craft. It was a very sparse effort for more than 6 or 7 years but since then I have devoted more time and attention. LOTS to still learn but it is fun, that is so important. This photo was left alone - a jpeg out of camera, so I will consider this my “Blue Period” - I think there was a famous painter that did the same.
