The Blizzard!


The forecast for tonight was for possible snow showers. "Yeah, right," I am thinking. Imagine my surprise then to take out the garbage and find out that it was snowing! The ground is completely covered! I am guessing about 3/4 of an inch of snow. So I am saved - I have something to shoot for the blog! So I went out and shot several things - the cars, and a bush with Christmas lights on it. As I headed into the back yard, I happened to look up at the spotlight that was illuminating the scene and saw how it made the snowflakes stand out from the dark. So I set the camera to a slow shutter speed to get some blurring, and made about 20 exposures. Only one was just right, and here it is. Oh, and yeah, I know it is not a blizzard... :-)
