"Lonely Hat"
This was taken at the San Juan Capistrano Mission in California. I was exploring the beautiful mission grounds and stumbled upon this very rustic looking hat perched on this wooden fence. Somehow, it just looked like it "fit in" with the place, so I decided to take some macros of it. Some tourists looked at me strangely as they watched me take pictures of the hat instead of the lush botanical displays and fountains...whatever--that's what photographers do (take pictures of things less noticed). Let me know what you think...good, bad, ugly. I edited in Lightroom 5 for saturation, WB, sharpness, contrast, and a little noise reduction.
