Nature The Neighbor's Garden Hose

The Neighbor's Garden Hose · **8 Likes**

For an old, manual lens made in the 70's, this one never failed to produce some amazing images. The very pleasing blue color in the background was my neighbor's garden hose hung on his fence.

I like the color profile on this one. Great sharpness and detail. I would not have guessed that this was form a 70s lens.

Great shot. Background color really enhances the composition

Really a nice photo. Definite wall hanger.

Again equipment takes a back seat to a great eye for composition .

Love how the arc of the branch matches the arc of the garden hose. And that blue color is fantastic. From now on that color should be called "Garden Hose Blue." Definitely should be considered for a wall hanger.

The garden hose bokeh is amazing. A simple subject, very pleasing to look at. Well done!

Wonderful image! Who would have thought a garden hose would provide such a marvelous backing?

The blue background is perfect for this image. Very nice composition!

Thanks for all the kind words. This was one of those images that didn't really reveal itself until I had downloaded it and was editing. That old Vivitar lens was a genuine performer.
