Description
"Two golden hours somewhere between sunrise and sunset. Both are set with 60 diamond minutes. No reward is offered. They are gone forever." ~ Horace Mann
Taken this past weekend during an evening stroll with the family. I saw the setting sun shining through the grasses in a field and knew I had to try and capture this moment. While it can't compare to being there, I don't think I did too badly. By the way, I used a technique I mentioned in the Photography Forum yesterday to help bring out shadow detail. If you are interested, go take a look. ----- Thank you for your webby comments on my last upload, Home, Home On The Vine.
