A Confession...


I really love how subtle this photograph is. I love how delicate the tones are, and how atmospheric the image. There were snow showers first thing this morning, and the flakes were huge! Big, soft, giant flakes. What that does is help increase the atmospheric feeling, almost like more fog in that kind of photo. Anyhow, the confession? I first saw this when I got out of bed, so I grabbed my camera, knowing that these snow showers can change in a minute. I went from window to window looking for photographs. I came up with about three different images, and I NEVER LEFT THE HOUSE. I shot these right through the glass windows! Real photographers would probably have gone outdoors! Or not.

Hey, thanks for the nice comments! The blog is a wonderful idea - I copied it from Will Yurman, who has been doing his blog for 2583 days straight! It is a wonderful discipline, knowing that you HAVE to find a photograph each day. Some days are better than others, of course, and three times a year you get one worth hanging on your wall! Try it!
