A Forgotten Image

Upon browsing through my Aperture library of all my photos, I ran across this image from this past fall. It jumped out at me, which is odd since I obviously didn’t think much of it back when I took it because I didn’t even bother giving it a star rating when I was downloading all the images from the hike. Usually I immediately identify the images I like and process them to completion.

There are compositional things I don’t like about this photo, and there are plenty of technical things wrong with it, but I have decided that for some reason it’s a keeper. It’s funny what a fresh perspective can do. This makes me excited to continue digging through my old images so see if there are any other forgotten gems.
