Yesterday I was running out of the house getting heading for work. I had my camera with me because my commitment to posting on this blog again requires that I take pictures. And with the beautiful color in New Hampshire this early October I didn’t want to miss a great shot.
I found a great shot, right on the top of my car. A dew covered leaf had fallen on the car. I grabbed the opportunity to get a shot, hopped in my car and promptly forgot about it.
When I went to look at the pictures later that evening, I was stunned by that same shot. It turned out better than expected. Better than all the carefully composed pictures I had taken later that day. It may not be perfect, but I loved it so much that I couldn’t think of a single way I could improve it.
So I give you, my favorite picture so far from my 2009 Fall Leaves series.

Remember, grab those good shots when you can. They may turn out better than expected.
