rewild your life 30 day photo challenge day 19~~

part of this photo challenge for me is more then getting out in nature....
as nature is already a huge part of my life,
what i do & how i see my self
part of the challenge is  the picture taking....
as in>>> improving my skills as a 'picture taker' 
going out when the light change of day to evening is in the midst of its shift
is the challenge for me to capture what i am seeing
the colors are amazing, however no so easily captured... & perhaps that is part & parcel of the elusiveness of nature & the elements.....
approaching my picture taking from the eye of an artist
with more of an art background
as apposed to the technical savvy of a photographer,lacking all the bells & whistles when it comes to the "tools of the trade" ...
anyway i am enjoying both my time in nature,
as well as my time behind the camera...
& really it's all goodness.... 
gonna post one more.... as i was out a great blue heron circled me 3-4 times, it was the coolest thing...
he was calling out while he circled.... my inital reaction after the amazement of it all was i hope he doesn't poop on me   LOL  
because of the low lighting i was unable to use the action setting....
however i thought the photo i did get was kinda cool....
so sharing it as well
