I took this photo about a month ago in the backyard of my friend's house in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. This wild bunny showed up and was not afraid of me. I was about 15 feet from it. I laid on the ground and made a little noise so it would pop its head and ears up. The bunny happily obliged, and I got the shot I wanted.

As the title says, this image is of a portion of the Santa Barbara Mission, in Santa Barbara, California. This is one of the minor bell towers of the church. As the sun was setting I walked 360 degrees around the church looking for different perspectives and lighting. This was shot from the back side of the complex. I liked the pastel colors created by the setting sun. Olympus E-M5 Mark II, 1/500, f 3.2, 40mm, ISO 2000.

While at the beach I began taking pictures of a friend's child. His intensity and also the light and colors are what prompted me to keep shooting until I got the correct angle.
