My five photos represent moments where for me I made my photo rather than just take it.  This photo is a photo I took a few weeks back when in Mount Usher Gardens, Co Wicklow, Ireland. A heron flew on to the lawn in the gardens just as I was about to take the photo of the lake..without him I could not have made this photo. Ansel Adams says - you don't take photographs you make them.: by rivendell, Views[290]
