Quarry Trip

[WW3]

I went to a local rock quarry with a good friend of mine and took some pictures along the way. He was not "Modeling" for me, so every shot was candid and exactly what happened - something that leads me to like the images I got even more.

Keep in mind that I am new to photography and have only been shooting since the beginning of February this year, so a little under 2 months.

The ice was melting so rocks would tumble every now and again. This startled him and I was able to get a photo of it.

He was conveniently looking at a Hawk that circled us for about 20 minutes.

Nothing like old industry to tempt the camera!

If you have an image editing programme - experiment with contrast, lightening shadows etc. to give a bit more punch - these look a bit flat on screen to me.

Keep posting and at times have a thick skin! They don't bite and we all learn from each other and remember views are subjective.

My grading is WISHID I wish I had taken that!
