About the Image(s)
This image was taken in Ennis, Texas. The Louisiana Photographic Society had a field trip to see the bluebonnets. The bluebonnets did not disappoint. Driving around I came across this image. I loved the donkey grazing in the field with her back to me. I felt there was a story here. I whistled, make noise, talked, etc. and this donkey would not turn around. So, I thought just taking the back end of this cute old donkey. I love the texture of the grass and the texture of the hair on the donkey. It was a stormy and cloudy day and the wind was blowing. I did flip the image and did not like the way it looked. I like the negative space to the right and I like the minimalistic look this image has.
April 23, 2022, NikonD800, Lens - 28mm - 300mm at 56mm, 1/250sec, f 5.6 ISO 100.
I got down very low to get this image. Any suggestions. Thanks.

I played a little with the crop and some dodge and bur (particularly in the clouds above the donkey's head). See if you like the changes.   Posted: 05/01/2022 20:05:57

Nice composition. Interesting perspective. You captured nice details in the donkey's fur and grass. I love the sky. The light breaking through the dark clouds helps focus my eye on the donkey. Great image.   Posted: 05/09/2022 08:40:18
