NATURE & LANDSCAPES

Out My Back Door

THERE’S SOMETHING OUT THERE

Life in an urban environment has definite advantages. The convenience of walking across the street to get a loaf of bread, or hopping in your car for a short drive to see a major sporting event, is undeniable.

But whether you’re a small-town boy or girl, or a city dweller; whether you live in farm country or the backwoods, looking out the back door can yield marvelous photographs. Wildlife abounds in every backyard, and you can enjoy it immensely if you just keep your eyes open and your camera ready.

Perhaps Creedence Clearwater Revival had that in mind when they recorded Lookin’ Out My Back Door four decades ago. —WTD
