Anoth­er week­end, anoth­er 25-km ride with my cam­era. I found lilacs, coun­try roads, and an angel in a grave­yard for you.

Want prints? Let me know, we can work some­thing out.

Lilacs

I shot the lilacs with a polar­iz­ing lens, which can add dra­ma to the sky. Which one do you like bet­ter? I’m par­tial to the dark­er sky, which makes the flow­ers real­ly stand out.
