During September in Japan, the rice fields reportedly turn gold (something I wish I could be there to see). As it is, the wide expanses of green, sometimes arranged in tiers for efficient irrigation, are breathtaking. No--not breathtaking...I wish there were a word for the feeling you get when you feel unbelievably free. There's something about the wide open space that makes me feel bigger, like I'm spreading out into the expanse itself.
Something I'm going to start on this: critiquing my photos. Things I like: being able to rule-of-thirds without thinking about it now. Things I'd work on: not taking crooked photos (I straightened the two landscapes in after-editing). Also, not photos out of a car window. I strongly believe in stopping when you see something photo-worthy when possible, so you can move yourself in relation to the scene. Also still dying for a wide-angle lens...
