Analysis of Venturesome Wandering Lens by the sea.



A sunny winter’s day

Filled with promise.

Camera already pre-set

For likely variables.

Stopping frequently to

Remove the threat to subjects .

Delightful snow crunching steps.

There they are…eagles.

So regal, eyes piercing.

No time to get flustered

Girl…nah I won’t.

Lighting, focus, composition

Click, click, click.
