“The road to freedom is bordered with sunflowers.”
Martin Firrell
A Field of Sunflowers
Some years ago while traveling along the Jose Antonio Paez Highway in the western Venezuelan plains, I was pleasantly surprised by a field of sunflowers that stretched from the side of the road as far as the eye could see.
Like many drivers, I parked my car and walked to the field, trying not to damage the plants, to take some pictures with this extraordinary natural backdrop.
After a while touring the plantation, and given the stifling heat in the place, I decided to resume my way, satisfied to have witnessed this spectacle of nature.
As I have described in previous posts, I process the original photographs using the editing tools offered in their free versions by the applications Picsart and Snapseed.
Algunos años atrás mientras recorría la Autopista José Antonio Páez en los llanos occidentales venezolanos, fuí gratamente sorprendido con un campo de girasoles que se extendía desde un costado de la vía hasta donde la vista lograba alcanzar.
Como muchos conductores, estacioné mi carro y me dirigí caminando hasta el sembradío, procurando no causar daño a las plantas, para tomar algunas fotos con este extraordinario telón natural de fondo.
Luego de un rato recorriendo la plantación, y ante el sofocante calor en el lugar, decidí reanudar mi camino, satisfecho de haber sido testigo de este espectáculo de la naturaleza.
Como he descrito en posts anteriores, las fotografías originales las proceso haciendo uso de las herramientas de edición que ofrecen en sus versiones gratuitas las aplicaciones Picsart y Snapseed.
All the Photos are of my Authorship, as well as the Edition of the same ones.
This is my entry for the PhotoFeed Cityscape Photography Contest. This is an initiative of @photofeed.
