The other day I went out to do some landscapes at my pocket sanctuary along the Kennebunk Bridle Path where it runs through a corner of Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge property, and came back with over 70 shots of Odonata\u2026dragonflies\u2026which I whittled down to 27 keepers: An Afternoon Feast of Odonata<\/a>. <\/p>\n

I did, however, manage to get a few landscape shots. Like this one. One of my favorite views across the marsh. I love the weathered fence posts, and, though unconventional, the dead snag dividing the image somehow works for me, perhaps because it \u201ccages\u201d the clouds on one side of the frame. <\/p>\n

Nikon Coolpix P500 at 23mm equivalent field of view, f5.6 @ 1\/800th @ ISO 160. Program with Active D-Lighting, \u20131\/3 EV exposure compensation to be sure of the clouds.<\/p>\n

Processed for Clarity and Sharpness in Lightroom.<\/p>\n
