Photography101 – Day 20 – Triumph

November 28, 2014 · by Michelle Hill · in Wordpress Photo Challenges · 18 Comments

This is my last entry for Photography101 challenge and the theme is ‘triumph’. I’m a little late again although it’s still officially Friday on the other side of the world. I’ve managed to get a photo up each day and have experimented with new ideas and methods which I”ll continue to explore. I’ve communicated with people from all over the world, all of whom have been very generous with their encouragement and feedback.

So what to choose for my last photo that captures the theme of ‘Triumph’? I’ve decided on one I took in Cappadoccia in Turkey earlier this year. Like this photography101 experience it was a first for me and left me feeling very triumphant.

That’s amazing, it doesn’t look like somewhere balloons would usually be landing which makes it really lovely! Did you get to go on one?

  Thanks Laura. I certainly did. The photo was taken from the balloon that I was in.

What an experience. Never in my life could I have done or do a flight in a ballon. The photography is magic

That must have been a magical experience! I was there a few years ago, but didn’t get to take a balloon ride. Thanks for sharing. 🙂

  It was most definitely a magical experience. Perhaps you’ll visit again one day and go up there yourself. All the best for your travels. I look forward to seeing more of your great photos.
