Jan 22, 2007




Unfortunately, we received some snow yesterday. I was really hoping it would stay in the 40's through the winter. LOL! I decided to go out while it was snowing yesterday to see what kind of photo opportunities I might run into. Well, I ended up getting stuck in the snow and it took me a little while to get out. So I decided to just go home. These are the pictures I got. Please tell me what you think. They didn't exactly turn out the way I had envisioned them. I've got to get better at that. The tree and sun settings are with my 28/200 mm lens, iso 200, f11, ss1/320. The swing shot is iso 200, f6.3, ss 1/640. The guy running is iso 200, f3.2, ss 1/3200. HHCC appreciated.

I really love the swingset shot. Great DOF and the pink mitten is a nice colorful touch in a monochromatic scene.

oooo, that first one is right on the money for me! Love the pink accent against the black and white. In fact...what about converting it totally to BnW, leaving the pink mitten? Love this shot, it's so fresh and crisp!

My faves are the first and last ones! Nicely done!

Only cc...there are some crooked lines that my eye is drawn towards.

I really like the first and last one. Both have very appealing lines, and the contrast in the first picture is awesome!

Love that first one. What is that on the swingset and mitten? It's cute whatever it is. It really makes an interesting shot even more perfect.

I think it was well worth getting stuck for these. I think they are great. I love the beauty of fresh fallen snow and you seemed to have captured it really well.
