Lupine Glade
The lupines put on an especially luxuriant display this year and our cool, damp June prolonged their blooms for almost a full month, though a couple of warm days last week finished them off shortly after I exposed for this image. I wanted to create an impressionistic portrayal of the rich growth that would also blur out the distraction of forest litter. I made a series of focused and unfocused exposures to blend in Photoshop as well as an in-camera double exposure. Ultimately, I liked the double exposure best except I wanted more definition and “solidity” in the tree trunks so I blended that in from some of the other images.
