I took this shot just as the street lights came on and I noticed how beautiful the snow looked in it. So, leaving my hot cuppa tea behind (I had been chilled standing out on the balcony shooting for at least an hour before that), I ran to get my tripod and coat and headed out again. I got about 5 or 6 shots, because I couldn't stay out too long with my lens getting drenched in the snow. At least now I don't have to worry about the camera body - it's weather sealed! Yay! The following shot is SOOC!
The next couple of shots were taken from my balcony as I mentioned above. I was looking for lines and contrast, and found a few I liked. This is a similar composition I had done in the past, but I still wanted to try this out with the new cam. The first one is on a slower shutter (1/30s), while the second was on a fast shutter to freeze the falling snow so it could show up as dots instead of lines (1/180s).
The next two shots were from my kitchen window, through bug-splattered double glass (sorry, but I had to explain how dirty my window is), and I loved the almost monochromatic scene in front of my eyes.
brrr...is all I can say!!! love the first one especially...
ReplyDeletebeautiful shots, especially the last two shots. I'm getting more snow tomorrow, like maybe up to 10 inches. Hopefully this winter's last storm

@noreen: thank you!
ReplyDelete@Cathy: I hope the snow's eased off at your end. It has here, but it's extremely cold and windy.
@Day: Thanks a lot! I love trees a lot myself and found these looking so beautiful! Hugs!
