Looking Up

Since my friend, Lauren, and I are alternating who gets to select the rule of the day for assignments, today it was her choice.  She opted for the following rule:  Shoot anything that is above your head while in a standing position.  The following image is the favorite of both of us.  No filter was used to create the star-shaped flare effect--it happened naturally from the light coming through the leaves--I just had to slowly move my camera around a bit to find that "sweet spot".  Next assignment parameters will be to shoot any objects/scenes that are metallic.  Until then!
