Getting Closer
Tuesday, May 22, 2012 | By: Daphne Ellenburg
It was just an average day. I was driving past the same road I drive everyday, but was struck by natures beauty. Fortunately, I'm the girl that's usually armed with a camera.
This guy just looked so lonely, standing in this field alone with the sun setting just behind him. It was really attractive. After shooting this for a while, I noticed this guy at my feet.
I was sure that the Yucca was going to fill my frame this week for EP Project 52's theme of "Closer" - and now I'm down in a field shooting a common weed. But in all honesty... I've never shot one of these. Any time I thought of it, it was always super windy. So...enjoy a few of my frame-filling beautiful weed.
Good Luck EP Project 52 squad with filling your frame this week!

So, What is EP Project-52?
We're a group for Photography Enthusiast and Professionals all teaching and learning through each other by photographing to a theme each week. We post our photos to our Flickr group each week by Thursday Midnight and start a new theme each Friday. Each Friday we spotlight 10 photographers and tell why they are featured. Our focus is on education (the how tos) and encouragement (don't be afraid to try something new). I'll bet there is something you'd like to learn. And...I'll bet there is something you can teach us. Check out the group, we're 74 strong this week! It's free to join and the friendships you'll make are priceless. Join us today!

Daphne Ellenburg - Many Thanks Guys! Irela - the last was my favorite too....but each week I narrow down to 3 or 4 and my family helps me pick. I was out voted this week ;-) But I'm glad you liked it too!
