“Light”

An abstract photo of tall grass at the Merced NWR, Merced CA.

About the Day

We were driving along the dirt road at the Merced NWR and I saw some of this tall grass in the evening light. I really wanted to capture this, but I had a few problems. I don't own a Macro lens, so I used my 300mm 4f/L IS lens and my 1.4X. I didn't want to get out of the car...too much of a bother to get in my wheelchair...figured by that time the light may have changed, so I shot it out the side door. To top it off, we also had a slight breeze.
