Sunset over Strathspey from Torr Alvie
Late afternoon strands of mist rose from the forest, turning fiery in the setting sun, the camera balanced on a convenient fencepost for support in the lower light.
I realised that one of the reasons I love nature photography, apart from being out in my favourite places and sharing the beauty I find there, is that in taking a photograph I am totally focussed on that moment, feeling where I am, assessing the technical factors, composing the image. Its a meditation. Anything which brings us into “Now!” can be a useful practice.
“Your sacred space is where you can find yourself over and over again.”
– Joseph Campbell
