I went on a Jeep ride with two of my best friends, and even though the scenery was just suburbia with some farmland mixed in, we found a field filled with tall yellow flowers. I have no idea what kind they were or what they were precursors to or if they served any other purpose than to just be tall and yellow and gorgeous. So we stopped the Jeep, and plunged into a world of yellow petals, greenery, and bumblebees.
I'll say it. We frolicked through the field of flowers.
And it was absolutely incredible.
One of my friends said to me, "I bet you wish you had your camera". And I really didn't. The moment was too amazing to be put into a frame. A camera could have not captured the vast expanse of the yellow field while still capturing moments like my other friend getting so excited about finding a ladybug. As much as I love photography, sometimes a photo or a look through a viewfinder just doesn't do the moment justice.
Sometimes you just have to experience it for yourself.
And sometimes, you need to cross things off of your Bucket List on a whim, like finding and random field of yellow flowers and running through it with two of your best friends. And those are the moments you'll always remember.
As always,
Lex
