These are all so beautiful! I think the photo that captured the sun’s rays is probably my favorite though. It’s amazing the way you captured them going all the way to the ground!

I love people too and take loads of pics of them. I’m just a bit reluctant to post as many times I haven’t asked their permission and I feel bad to post without it. Maybe it’s just me, and I probably need to get over it 🙂

In today’s age feel free to photograph them as long as they are in a public place. It took me a couple years to get used to it myself. I like to use my zoom lens so they don’t know I’m taking it. I personally don’t like posed photos.
