Two Gourds.jpg

November 06, 2014 in Blog

By Scott Shephard

I post a lot of leaves, trees, buildings, foreign places and people. But I post very few of gourds. I assume these gourds are the product of some demented geneticist. Or maybe they're natural?

For those interested in photography, this photo is a considered "high key" because the subject is the darkest thing in the frame. Contrast this with a "low key" image in which the subject is the lightest thing in the frame. Such as my leaf photo from a few days ago. 

Canon 5DIII 1/125s f/8.0 ISO200 100mm
