Below is a fun, easy photo recipe to try when capturing spring photos with your iPhone!  All the photos, except for the final, are unedited so you can see my process of finding the story I wanted to capture.  Enjoy!!

WHEN:  If you wake up and the sun is already shining, grab your iPhone (or really any camera) and head out for a morning walk.

PREP:  Find a beautiful tree that is showing signs of Spring–leaves bursting through, cherry blossoms blooming, you name it.  Notice the different details of single branches. What strikes you the most?  Is it the color, the texture, the movement of a new leaf pushing through?

COMPOSE: Fill your frame with what strikes you most, and take a few photos.  Then, take a look?  Do you like what you got?

I liked this okay, but I wanted more.
