Robert's Ramblings

Moody grey skies make for great backdrops and this morning's grey had a fantastic mix of highlights, dark and shadows.

While on the road this morning I passed by the local skate park and considered the photographic opportunities. I really did not feel like capturing any skating action - and to be honest there wasn't much talent about anyway - so I focused (pardon the pun) on the inanimate features of the park.

This cut-out feature of the skater caught my eye in the way it framed the moody sky beyond. A small aperture and deep depth of field was used to capture the detail in both sky and frame.
