Early Snow #3

PHOTOGRAPH INFO

Last Sunday and Monday we had an early snowfall. The snow was melted by Tuesday morning but I'm still posting shots almost a week later. :) Still a few more in the pipeline.

Check out my buddy Justin Gaynor's new holiday photoblog, 'Tis the Season! Justin's looking for guest photographers so if you have a holiday image you'd like to submit, drop him a note. Thanks for the fun project, Justin!

Post-processing: Shot with the Canon EOS 5D and the Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L lens at 70mm, ISO 400, f/6.3, shutter 1/1000s. Simple curve adjustment.

Thank you for visiting Durham Township!

That's certainly much more "in-depth" winter than your last photo. Winter tranquility and melancholy... Wonderful.

I'm really enjoying this series. I love winter and the snow. We had some snow, but nothing like this.

Everything takes on a wondrous quality with a new coat of snow. Not the least of wonders here is the tangle of weeds and fence row forestry on the right. The wide path through the broken stalks of last season's corn harvest beckons us on to the rail fence and the softened shapes of distant trees. Yep, fresh coat of snow does a world of good...if there is someone there to capture it.

Thanks for being there so we can be there.

Your photography is beautiful and makes me feel something! This picture reminds me of when I was a boy growing up in rural Minnesota. Thanks for what you do.

I breathe bigger everytime I click on one of your photos. They give life.

Really like this B&W image. Great details and contrast. Very nice work.

The snow and fog have transformed the normally distracting power poles and lines and are making me look deep before they are absorbed.

That was actually quite a lot of snow for an early storm. It transformed the landscape into a winter dreamscape.

cant wait for it to snow in the city to take some pics. it be interesting to see a shot at this same location but at another time of the year.

I can't wait to experience this.

Beautifully captured, as usual.

I have been wondering though, so that I don't make a mistake when winter does come around full swing...

Is it bad to have your camera out in such cold weather???

Here they stand in row after row; their silent yet crucial contributions to society taken for granted. Hasn't this always been the case? Isn't this what makes a Country great? So many, selflessly give so much and are never recognized, are rarely appreciated. Yet they continue to answer the call and form up in anonymous ranks to be harvested or plowed under like so much chafe and fodder while dangers flourish and mankind marches onward to an uncertain future.

Apparently Willow is not a union writer.......good!

Terrific series, and this one's my favorite. I'm a sucker for lines that lead to something, that shapely tree in this case. Looks like a very quiet scene.
