The
beauty of nature has never stopped to impress me. I always find it
hard to believe that we are surrounded by such appealing and natural
beauty – and yet we tend to take it for granted. Unfortunately, a
lot of people are constrained to the indoor and not really want to
take themselves outside. If only you had allowed yourself to enjoy
more good time outdoor, you will be marveled at the natural shades,
colors, and little elements of life intertwined themselves around
you.
The Idea
When I
took the picture, I simply imagined that it would be just a regular
outdoor photography with the hiking activity as the basic
focus. However, as I strolled around in a leisurely way, I found out
more beauty and life around me. The way the leaves rustle, the vivid
colors of the trees, and even the rays of sunlight appeal me in the
way that I have never thought I would be captivated. During the walk,
I realize that if you would only look closely, you will find such an
enthralling and natural beauty that you may miss out. Let’s be
honest, how many times in a day you step outside the door and marvel
at the beauty around you? I believe not too often, right?
The Top Hiking
So,
when I decided that I wanted to make an impressive shot of the day, I
didn’t realize that it would be really easy. My camera was busy
during the journey to the top but it was really busy when we reached
the top. It didn’t stop taking pictures and shots because I was
mesmerized by the natural view and the beautiful sceneries.
But then I took this shot
and it simply blew my mind away. Everything seemed to be extremely
perfect. The man is on the edge of the cliff with the perfect
background of the sky. He was looking through his binoculars as if
seeing the future and awaiting of the great things to come. I was
more impressed by the play and combination of the natural colors. The
green grass with some dry twigs, the gray strong stone, the mix of
the white clouds, the peek of the blue sky, and the divine rays of
the sunlight….everything seemed to create a great balance. The
picture is like saying, “This is the world in a reality. These are
the real colors of nature.”
