Unexpectedly...

Many times we go out as photographers with the intention of perhaps just unwinding or enjoying the afternoon maybe with another photographer friend which I did today. We went to a place I had been to previously but hadn't fully explored. Clouds came and went and there was a chance of rain which didn't eventuate. In any case the detail in the rock face which we had to make effort to access became more interesting the more we photographed. No, we had not taken anything to make this experience out of the ordinary but as it happens which photographic excursions, you can get really immersed with the subject matter. Quite a few of the shots were taken in an intuitive manner, meaning not thinking too hard about what should be where in the screen or viewfinder. Perhaps the process was guided more by the prevailing and changing light. Its only after viewing the day's efforts that certain images stand out and they are not always the ones that were expected to do so. Not that the results are always random by any means but some images have there own special quality.
