Winter tends to become somewhat colorless ... whites, browns, gray skies. It is a great time if you dabble in photography to test yourself.
What can you come up with?
Should you make a photo black and white?
Should you edit it?
Do you hunger for colors? [I do all the time but love the challenge that winter brings]
Yesterday while out on my daily hike, I walked through our creek bottom. Sometimes each day can bring a new surprise.
Overnight the coyotes had revisited their deer remains. All that is left now are bones and the hide.
The skeleton is red tinted and very eerie looking. From a distance it looks pinkish against the backdrop of snow and footprints.
I found some open running water by one of our springs and knelt down over it to listen to the music of the creek.
Viola!
I found colors!
Blues and golds~a splash of color.
And I was pleased.
Beautiful winter scenes indeed. Unfortunately I am not that creative. My photography needs to continually be refined. I have much to learn! :)
ReplyDeleteI have much respect for you living in a place where winter lasts so long and is so cold.
But you are very creative! Look at those wonderful figurines you make!
ReplyDeleteI have much to learn in photography also, it is a never ending process!
