a view of the sky

For everyone who has been following my blog you all know I've been shooting daily, I was in my backyard and was suffering from what i like to call photographers block. i leaned my head backwards and discovered the sky. something we all take for granted in it's fullest summertime beauty. Thru the lens of my camera I've really began to discover the beauty in this world
