The Exotic Rainforest |
Light
and Season in the Rainforest
It's the same with photography. Since I spent
much of my working life as a commercial photographer I often
look at things very differently depending on the time of day and
season of the year. This view is similar to
another photo on the this website. The difference is both the angle, which
is more to the east, and the time of year. The main page photo
was taken during summer, this one during the midst of winter
when the sun is at it's southern most angle.
During the summer the plants are fuller and there is far more color. During the winter everything and everyone is conserving energy for spring which is just a few months away. During the spring and summer we see little green anoles (lizards) and tree frogs can be heard "barking" for a mate. During the winter the animals are mostly in hiding with the exception of a few frogs, who are quiet, and one large bull anole. Still, in it's own way, the rainforest is just as beautiful. Just different in fullness and color.
Alongside this walk is a favorite place to
relax |
