Within the Pines…

by on Jan.27, 2016, under Life, Photography

These holidays we were going on a family road trip. It was time to visit our relatives in South Australia – the last time we were here was perhaps half a dozen years ago.

My sister in law lives on a farm in rural South Australia and they have these huge forests of pines nearby. Even though we’d spent half the day driving already I was keen to get out and try some images I had in my head. So my eldest daughter joined me for a quick trip to a nearby plantation and whilst she played on her phone I looked to try and bring one of the images in my mind to life.

Unfortunately nothing I tried really worked nor achieved the result I wanted – either in composition or look. Still we had a pleasant time taking a look at various parts and paths in the forest before it started to rain.

Note: These photographs (especially the wider shots) look much better when larger – so click any of the images below to see larger versions in an inline overlay slideshow gallery viewer.
