Rays of Light - Brook Trail

Wachusett Meadow - Princeton, MA

 

To get out and enjoy the sunny weather, Amanda and I did a day hike at Wachusett Meadow in beautiful Princeton, MA. While attempting to cross a brook, I noticed the blinding sun reflecting off of the waters surface. I wondered what it would look like if I under exposed the shot, so I set my camera and took a few shots. The resulting photographs captured a shimmering texture from the sun's rays on a dark space. I loved the effect so I tried a few more shots to better position the shadows. Hopefully I can capture this type of lightning again since the sun will hang low this time of year.
