I saw this shot at Deranged Visions and absolutely love it. Somehow this picture gets even better WITH words, something that's not always the case in photography. Truly love it, and yes, so many things coming together just for you and your lens... That's the best <3
You know I love this photo! ♡ Great to see you posting again, Gaby. :)
That feeling of slow motion seems to happen most often when things are happening fast - it's like our brains speed up to compensate for the external reality. The closest I've come to that feeling of "time slowed down" is during racing (sim racing on the computer or karting in real life), but there have been occasions in photography, chasing the dying light of a sunset or photographing the eclipse, where I was so focused on capturing a split second moment that the moment felt like it was being stretched to fit my own capabilities. I like the feeling, because it happens when I'm really connected, as you say, to what I'm doing, and there's no better feeling than that, especially when what you're doing is filled with meaning and purpose.
I missed having your posts to comment on. Even if I didn't always comment on them. :)
And yes, it makes me wonder why this feeling of connectedness doesn't happen more often - the feeling of being in the right place at the right time and doing exactly what we need to be doing at that moment. It's an addictive feeling, but not an addiction that's easy to feed.

Hey there. It always makes me smile to see you around commenting my photos. And yeah! I love that feeling when everything comes together.
very nice picture, i like how you tell the story of the image! And yes the shadow lines are really cool!
Thanks @luckyme03200 I loved the lines too. And well, every image has a story to tell! Some are obvious, some are not.
I was gonna give this a big vote because it's so good... then I saw it was you after the fact and was like... oh she gets an auto vote from me anyway.
What i'm saying is this is a wonderful picture... like really good!!
