October Snow

After the late October snow yesterday the sky is clear and bright today.  I was able to frame up some leaves and berries in closeup with ice and snow on them and a nice warm fall background to set off the image nicely.  This is one of the guidelines I follow with my photography.  Take the opportunities that present themselves.  You should never force a photo the viewer can always tell when you do that.  Let nature show her wonder and capture it when she does.

Strorm of '09

The snow storm this weekend stayed more off shore and headed up the east coast... So while DC,Philly and Southern Jersey had record falls we had only a few inches of the white stuff. I am very happy for that fact. Most storms head north and west of NYC and we wind up buried so this is a nice break. I am heading to the park with my camera for a little while. I will post any good photos I get later on today.

And miles to go before I sleep.

We had our first real snowfall of the season last night. It was perfect for photography... We had the wet sticky kind of snow all evening, then it stayed cold and we had clear blue skies in the morning. Just after sunrise is the perfect time to capture this "perfect storm". It was just enough snow to be pretty, but not a problem to drive in once the snow stopped.

The world always seems fresh and new after a snow storm.
