This is another place I run -- the Polo Field in the Metroparks in the suburbs of Cleveland. The field area itself has a path around the perimeter that is about a mile long. There is also a path that heads south from here along a river, which can be taken for 6 to 7 miles (one way). The Polo Field is the site for polo (of course) as well as various other horse events (there is a week-long national jumping event going on at present), a national caliber dog show, ultimate frisbee contests, etc. [Note: The quality of the overview photo is low and I don't expect any comments about it -- save your comments for the others.]

Hope you don't mind some more macros, as I really like my new macro lens.

These are wildflowers that are along the right of the path shown in the overview photo.


These are some cultivated flowers that have been planted surrounding a historical marker describing the history of the polo field. They are off to the left, out of view, in the overview photo.

My Week 3 is based on a shot I entered in a challenge. I went to the Frankfurt Main Tower and up to the observation deck. The different perspectives involved different sun angles, different city views, and wide versus a bit more telephoto views. I also varied landscape versus portrait orientations.

In these two (the first was my challenge entry), the sun is coming from over my left shoulder.


In the next two, the sun is almost directly behind me.

And this is a view with the sun over my right shoulder.


Not sure what if anything this shows - I just kinda like shooting from on top of the tower - I like the view from there!

Here are my week three shots... Taken at the home of my older daughter's riding instuctor. Bees refused to stand still and the wind was blowing. After seeing ErikV's shots I'm admitting to lens envy.

I'll be back to comment later but here's a photo shoot of my car. I think the dappled light from the tree is a little harsh and I was trying to use a circular polariser but the shots using that were too dark!
