I took this image yesterday after work at Mount Macedon (luckily for us only 10 minutes away). I know that for people that get to experience winters much, much colder than ours, this image may seem unremarkable! Where I live we frequently get sub zero temperatures in winter, but that means a very severe frost, not snow. This lasted for over 24 hrs and since the last time I saw it like this was 2007, one of my first ever digital images of snow 🙂 🙂
OK, it’s been 100 degrees here in Texas. Looks refreshing!
Yes, when summer comes and we get those temps I should remember this!
And a very good first digital capture too. The fallen, snow-covered branch center frame make this shot – otherwise having all verticals would have made the image too busy. Very nice Lisa!
Thanks Robert, I totally agree, glad you liked it. I’ve just come back from walking – hardest frost I’ve seen for years – just waiting for camera to come up to room temp to see what I got today 🙂
Wow, it’s always good to be reminded that a minor tilt of our planet has a markedly different effect depending on where you are standing.
Very well put!
So refreshing and inviting–provided one is prepared with the right footwear and insulation. I love walking in a fresh snow like this. Thank you!
Yes, I know what you mean about inviting 🙂
Beautiful image, Lisa. I particularly like the sinuous horizontal fallen branches cutting across all the other verticals, and also the browns and greens of the tree trunks – which confirm that this is by far better kept out of black and white! Adrian
Thanks Adrian, yes definitely a colour image for this one 🙂
well the snow was definitely worth waiting for and this image has captured the moment perfectly, love it
It was worth the wait – glad you liked it.
