Screamin' Snow

Sunday, kids of all ages came out to slide down NE 70th in Seattle. It was interesting to work with high contrast snow and fast action. I used a wide-angle to get the whole scene and changed to a 100mm macro--just right to capture faces without getting run down.

Snow Days, December 2008

I have been trying the capture the changing landscape created by the snow and ice each day.  Since I'm somewhat housebound, I've been finding my photographs close to home.

Maple tree in my backyard.  With the sky so dramatic as a new storm came in, I decided to go with black and white and play around with contrast.

Icicle hanging off my back deck.  Reminds me of a hand.  Droplets are easier to photograph when the water is just above freezing.  Photo taken with my macro lens.

 Terracota planter in sepia.  More fun with contrast.

 fluffed up chickadee in my old cherry tree near the bird feeder.  Macro lens used as a telephoto.
