trees, leaves, insects and feathers...

i just completed a short course in photography and our final assignment was an outing at a conservation area east of joburg. the lighting, landscape, subject matter and 4:30am wake up call were all less than inspiring, but i managed {through some miracle} to get some cool shots. we aren't allowed to shoot raw and edit, so my submissions were more toned down than these slightly edited photos. i boosted contrast and saturation and did some cropping in lightroom.

hope you like them {even though nature is totally not my vibe!} on the side, one of the girls in my class is an artist specialising in oils and she asked for the barb wire pic to paint, aaaand she's going to give me the painting when she's done. very, very cool :)
