I’m a #photographer and visual opportunist — and longtime blogger and writer who has shared a daily #photograph for two decades at gdanmitchell.com. #photography 📸📷
I love photographs like this one from Dylan Nardini, what I refer to as “barely there” images, where a little detail has to imply a lot.
From a lovely morning in the Trossachs, back in September, 2021.

Nice photograph from Jos Buurmans. The layers are interesting, but the shadow on the grass and the bit of light on the sand in front of it make it sing.
