Picture of the Day - 3/23/09

OK, here's a first! The "photo of the day" acclaim goes to my sister, Susan Langley, who sent me a picture today of the poppies blooming off Dry Creek Road in the Southern Sierra foothills. What really caught my eye in this photo was the subtle color patches - orange, yellow, green and white - almost painting-like, throughout the composition. The soft muted colors truly make this a "killer" shot! It appeared to be taken in overcast weather - perfect conditions for the delicate detail seen here. Full sunlight would never have worked as well.

Very well done Sue!
