Poppy Impression No.3
Northumberland, England
A field of swaying poppies created the opportunity for some impressionistic photography. Normally I have my camera mounted firmly on a tripod, in order to give maximum sharpness in the image. Here, however, I was handholding the camera and rotating it as I made the photograph. I added to the sense of dynamism by rotating the camera off center. This required a lot of experimentation, which thankfully with digital, is a lot less expensive than in the days of film.
