Memories of Mom
Contest Number: 134 Contest Theme: The Sky Lens: DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.8 AL II @ 18mm Camera: Pentax K-5IIs Shutter Speed: 1/350s Aperture: F8 
Posted By: Tamia, 10-19-2017, 05:04 PM



Late in the day, early spring, returning from visiting with my ill mother in hospital, I couldn't help but stop to admire the cirrus clouds fanning out across the Adirondack lake, portending a change in weather. The soft cloud curls reminded me of my mother's hair spread out on a dark pillow of the sky. All I had with me was the kit lens I'd bought long before with a different camera, the K200d, but it did an admirable job of capturing the scene, I think.
