"Breath Taking"

What Type of Camera and/or Lenses Did You Use?

Digital camera Sony

What Was the Weather Like? What Was the Lighting Like?

It was a bright and clear spring day. It was taken outdoors with a simple digital camera bought at Wal-mart. I used the built in flash, but I do not think it was needed at all, because the sun was shining pretty and the weather was warm and dry. We had just moved to the area, and I was snapping different pictures of the area. When we got to looking at the photos, this one was breath taking and reminded me of something sold in stores for decorations. We have a copy of this photo everywhere and it will soon be framed and hanging on our walls.

Thanks for taking the time to upload the photo & I appreciate your views on photography! The idea that photos can bring out the beauty in a scene beyond what you see when you look at it with your eyes is a great thought!
