It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

Beautiful Mistake
I went out to look at the trees in the back yard because there was some nice fall color. I saw this scene, composed it carefully and snapped. I took a look at what I shot in the LCD screen on the back of the camera and was completely surprised by the color - instead of red and orange it was all blue. That was because I had the camera's color balance set for tungsten light - like lightbulbs indoors. I immediately changed the color balance back to "daylight" and proceeded to take normal looking photos. But when I went to edit the pictures, there was something about this one that was wonderful. I just loved the blue color. So here is my mistake!
Beautiful watercolor! Glad you posted your mistake! :-)
