Snow!

A bunch of it.
Not really the norm for Virginia -but no less enjoyed.
Best wishes for a white Christmas wherever you are.
Merry Christmas!

When Winter Comes
December 12, 2009
The leaves are gone -the creek is cold.
The wind blows and then, the snow.
In these times we now remember, to find warmth follow the glow.
Happy winter!
Falling
October 24, 2009
It started as a cool, cloudy, wet day in this big mid-westernish city. But leaves were falling and I couldn’t resist. I hit the woods but my luck was limited at best. I did find a fire lookout tower that provided a bit of a view…
Boring I know -but hey this is Ohio. Nothing like a mountain when you’re looking… Actually I should have done better -but at the moment I was standing, if you want to call it that, on a 2×3 foot platform 80 feet in the air with 40mph winds threatening to blow everything I owned over the side. Let’s just say I was thinking a good bit more about holding on than I was about taking the picture. I did get this.
Oh well, I tried. Things got a little better when I found Cedar Falls.
Not bad, but it would have been better with less beach. It does crop to a 4×5 format nicely though. Notice that overhanging rock -I brought it out of the black by a little flick of light from my sb-800.
This turned out ok too… lucky for me. Many of them didn’t. There was this other little issue of falling things -precipitation. Not that I mind really -it helped clear out the swarms of people and my camera doesn’t mind a few drops. But my lens… for some reason I didn’t notice the drops.
I lost dozens of images to the spots. Oops. Guess next time I will pay more attention.
Simple life
October 3, 2009
Sometimes even the simplest things in life get a little confusing when you look below the surface.
In such times it is best to lean together and hope in the end it comes out straight.
