The little reed, bending to the force of the wind, soon stood upright again when the storm had passed over.

Wonderful photo, Emily. I love the colours. 🙂
Thank you Sylvia ! I appreciate your kind comment.
This is so beautiful!! I love the colours! 🙂
Thank you so much Calee ! I also love how this turned out. Loving my new software!
Blowing With the Wind reminded me to Go With the Flow – Great Capture – Have a Great One:)
You certainly got the message I was trying to convey. Being adaptable to the world around you. Thanks Renee!
Excellent captured photo and a wonderful title – love it…. 😉
So happy that you enjoyed this one Drake ! 🙂
Very cool. Making old technology new again.
Thank you so much Phil ! I really like this windmill.
This one looks like a painting as well. And you were able to catch some shadows. Question, what is Grandma’s Lemonade?
It is a preset with the OnOne plugin for Lightroom that all you do is click on it and it transforms your image with this effect.
fantastic photo emily! the colours are great 🙂
Thank you so much Evi ! I’m having a lot of fun with this push button processing.
How the heck did you get this shot? Were you on a hill or standing on top of a car? I’m assuming that this windmill is tall. And the perspective is not looking up, but looking straight at it.
I love this photo!
That is a great question. I took it with my 500 mm lens and it was a little far from me. Thanks for thinking about how this shot was taken.
You don’t see them often. Nice capture.
You know, you’re right. I never really thought about it. Perhaps because I spend a lot of time driving through farmlands and seem them here and there. Thank you so much.
Beautiful shot – love the color of the blades against the sky. Speaks of strength and courage against all elements.
Thank you so much Mary. I am surprised what great condition this one is in. But makes sense, it is at a farm museum.
What a fantastic image… Love this. (Oh, and you’ll see me following you again, cuz I accidentally hit unfollow just now. D’oh!) XO!
LOL ! That is funny. I have been known to do that as well. So happy you loved this pic. 🙂
Beautiful image! Did you get some new software? The processing gives it such a classic old-timey look.
Oh so you noticed Tricia. 🙂 I did ! Got the Nik full package and am having a ball ! Although this one was with the OnOne Lightroom plug in presets. Thanks!
What a wonderful photograph.
So free and peaceful.
Have a great weekend!
How fun it would be to fly in the wind right Lisa? Thank you so much for your kind comment and may you also have a wonderful weekend.
Beautiful post Emily!
Smiles Judy!
