Against the light.

I love taking shots against the light. It can be a challenge to avoid glare and burnouts but the rewards are worth the effort in terms of contrast and vivid colour. Today was a continuation of several days of sun , mild temperatures and low humidity which lends even more clarity to such images.

Fresh blades of grass are backlit and the air is clear on this day of low humidity.

The texture of the tree trunks makes a nice contrast with the blades of grass while the shadows continue the tree lines.

Flowers from the trees dot the water by the peninsula. Lots of green shades contrast nicely with the sky reflection.
