The Daily Walk Photo

Rain on Daisy

On this morning’s walk, my dog Nori and I were treated to some much-needed rain here in Oregon. It was a cool, damp walk on our usual path on the hill behind our house. Today, I grabbed my favorite walk-around combo, a Nikon D7100 with an old manual focus 55mm macro 3.5 lens. Well, I guess you could also say the D7100 crop sensor camera is also pretty darn old. For black and white photography, I really like the rendering that this combination of camera and lens outputs for a digital camera. Not too sharp but sharp enough, which is what I want for a soft subject like this rain drop-covered daisy. 

This image captured the quiet, peaceful nature of this morning’s walk. 

It is a very simple photo, and I can’t think of a better way to start this Daily Walk series.
