Rainy days and learning to see...

Photographers - It pays to circle the subject you find so interesting! 

As you move around the object the camera picks up outside light differently depending on the sun or angle of the brightest light. 

Design skills are utilized as the photographer decides what to capture in the space the camera frame offers. As the shutter closes and opens again a snippet of  perceived reality is picked up and transformed into tiny pixels. Voila!

What is super amazing is that the light looked totally different when I stood 50 degrees away from the spot where I took the above photo and this image below was captured:

Light, design and a steady hand (most of the time!) yields favorable images.
