May the 4th be with you! (Uploaded May 4.)

Single exposure, real reflection, minor Lightroom adjustments, no content adds/ deletes/ overlays/swaps, no Photoshop. I prefer the time outdoors shooting, and not to spend more than about 5 minutes computer/post-processing time per photo, so as much as possible has to be optimized in-camera!

You can always revisit the file to rework the edit, but you can’t re-take the image once you’re home. Get it right the first time; the best moments and their conditions will never be repeated again!
