Early morning in the local forest with a nice amount of fog and beautiful light. I had a rough night sleep, woke up way to early. And heading out in the forest was medicine for body and soul. When wandering out in the nature with these conditions you just calm down. Slow down and just start to feel better straight away. All shots were taken with my FujiFilm XT4 and a 16-80mm F4 lens, handheld.
Out in the forest...
I think you all know that feeling... The desire to go out. Explore, be in nature, and breathe free. Of course in these times we all live in now that feeling might be stronger then ever. And this feeling needs to be fed, satisfied. In order to stay happy, recharge your batteries and so on. But even without taking our current situation into consideration, that feeling can just pop up anyways. And all the time.
Tonight I had a severe case of “the forest is calling” hit me. So, I just gave into that feeling. Grabbed some of my photography gear jumped in the car and off I went. Down towards one of the forest around my hometown. I am lucky, I live in an area where there are plenty of forests around.
In this blogpost you will see the results of tonight’s session in the forest. One that was not different then others in many ways. But special in its own right. The forest is where I need to be, it soothes my soul. Enjoy checking out my images, and thank you for visiting my website!
This next shot down below was a particularly nice photo to take. This is a manual focus shot. Where I zoomed in all the way on the lcd screen on the back of the camera. And manually dialed in the focus. To make sure that it was perfect. The result came out really good. With that nice foreground blur to lead your eye straight down the entire forest path. Shot on my 70-200mm F2.8 at 200mm
