Penning Photography Daily

Out for a walk on one of our local trails, I was passed by many runners and a few folks on bikes.

It was a beautiful day for being outside. The sky was clear of clouds, showing it’s full blue mantle. The temperature had risen to a comfortable 40F and the winds, while gusty and brisk, were moderated by the trees on the trail.

I took off in the mid afternoon. It was my first time on this trail even though it’s been there for decades. I ease into new things.

After this runner passed me, I thought, what a perfect opportunity for a picture. A couple quick shutter presses later and here you are.

I was lucky.

I caught her in mid-stride. Both feet in the air, a nicely defined shadow underneath. That the trail was curving just ahead is a nice bonus.
