Tuesday, July 14, 2020 Photography Fail

Hosta blossoms at sunset. I’m not sure I have much to add to that.

I tried to get a photo of a lightning bug the same night I was taking these photos. Totally hilarious. First of all, you have to try to find one of them flitting about, then you have to try to focus on it while it’s flitting, following it with the camera and taking a bunch of photos in the hopes that you’ll catch it lighting up. I did, in fact, get a photo of a lightning bug while it was in lightning mode. When I looked at the photos, all I saw was a whole series of photos of unfocused grass, one of which had an teeny tiny unfocused yellow blob in it. So you get hosta blossoms instead. It’s better this way.

You’re welcome!

I’ll probably delete this in the morning, still chuckling over my photographic failure. Well played, Mr. Firefly.
