A dense growth of moss carpets a stony outcrop in my back yard.
I was out with my macro lens and noticed that pointing it into the sun produced some quite massive flare. Instead of trying to eliminate it, I decided to play with it and incorporate it into my photos.

I’m looking forward to spending some quality time with my camera at the beach later this week.
I stayed close to home this weekend, limiting my photography range to my own back yard. New life is emerging all around: trees and shrubs are bursting with new leaves, daffodils are blooming, and mosses and lichens are sending out a profusion of tiny tendrils. Pictured here is a lush growth of tender moss sprouts basking in the morning sun.
