Snowball Fight

Photograph info: This photograph was taken last night in what's left of the snow that fell on Monday. It's melting fast...and I hate to see it go!

Camera settings and post-processing: Shot with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II and the Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L lens with circular polarizing filter at 17mm, ISO 400, f/4, 1/200s. Curves adjustments.


Thank you for visiting Durham Township!

Thanks for putting up a good fight! Looks like "Cloud Hurling" to me. Fantastic timing (as we've come to expect,) in what appears to be the opening salvo of yet another Cold War.

This is one of the nicest gallery of pictures of "everyday" scenes that aren't so "everyday" I've seen in a while. Just couldn't help writing a tweet on it. I'll for sure put this one on my list of blogs to follow. Keep up the great work.

Great photo Kathleen; unfortunately I cannot share your sentiment about the snow. Bring on the summer!

You have definitely caught this at the 'decisive moment'. Great shot, and very fun...

Wow, looks like you were right in the line of fire. Excellent action image made just at the right second (make that millisecond).

Throwing snowballs and taking snapshots - that's skill right there.

Quite brave to get into that with your camera... But it was worth it!

Hard to believe this was just 2 days ago, considering that it's 70 degrees outside right now!
