My mind had been imbued with new language for expressing the beauty I see. The world of Eramosa has grown in my head for years. I reached, but always the words eluded my grasp. Now at last I can show more than just thumbnails: the full range of colour, detail, light and shadow I imagined.
I spent a blessed 90 minutes with my new camera exploring familiar haunts along the river this afternoon. I slipped twice along the muddy shore, getting ice on the cuff and mud on the knees of my jeans. My fingers went numb with cold, but visions kept drawing me further.
A pair of wood ducks flew up, a rare sight.
I tried the macro, auto and landscape settings, but mostly experimented with shutter speed priority, aperture priority and manual modes. I used to like doing this with my Canon AE-1. Now, with the magic of digital, I can bracket to my heart's content. This will help explore the tonal range of one of my favourite subjects, reflections.
This evening as first the images appeared on my monitor, I was at first breathless, then humbled, then moved to tears at the articulation now available to me.
