Ok. So my outfit was slightly out of touch with reality; wandering the California hills (complete with snake friendly tall grass) in chiffon and high-water capris, perhaps, was not the wisest choice. But in my defense it was a picnic, and I was uber excited. I mean, back in the day women used to wander prairies in ankle length skirts! At least my ankles were getting some air.
isn't this an amazing lens effect? want to know how I did it? I put my sunglasses in front of the camera lens!
The location was absolutely incredible; large birds of prey soaring on hot winds, and visibility that stretched for miles. My boyfriend and I climbed to the top of a hill to find a bench with the perfect view; and with lunch it ended up being a feast for all the senses. Later when a burly mountain man passed by with a heat insulated Starbucks cup, we took pause.
"Was that man with..?"
"Yeah."
"...Just checking."
Wishing you all a wonderful 4th of July!
