We’ve had some glorious, sunny evenings over the past few weeks. Once the children have gone to bed I’ve made the evening sunshine and taken myself off for a walk so I can unwind after what have become very busy days as we inch towards the the school holidays.
There’s a field I often walk through which has provided lots of opportunities for great landscape photographs because of the position of the sun in the late evening. I’d normally take imagery with the sun behind me, but this time I decided to play with the shadows and take the image looking towards the sun.
It did involve getting in to the correct position (IE rolling around and kneeling on the floor). I think it’s created quite a striking picture and I hope you agree.
On the subject of the school holidays, I hope all mums, dads, children and families have a relaxing few weeks. Do you have much planned? Are you looking forward to several weeks without the school run? Are you nervous about what the return to school may look like because of the pandemic? Let me know what you think and what you are doing in July and August!

Interesting shadows and textures
And that Carol, was the whole idea! Shooting into the sun can be very difficult but this time I think it worked.
I love the colour and shadows and the way it turned out. I would print this one. Well captured.

I hadn’t though of printing it, what a great idea! I might just do that.
I like the hazy colours and the retro feel x #mysundayphoto
Ah yes, the hazy colours come courtesy of the photographer, the retro feel comes courtesy of the editing!
Love this, it has a vintage film feel to it
Thank you for linking up to #MySundayPhoto
What a beautiful image. I love the colour, it’s interesting to see the difference it makes to face in the other direction.
