Friday night and into yesterday morning, it was the first snow of the season. And the first snow I have “lived” in since the winter of 1985/86. It was a wet snow that sticks to the tree limbs and due to the wind it also sticks to the sides of the trees.
I was excited to get out and shoot the gorgeous winter wonderland, however, there was a funeral to attend. Knowing that there would be beautiful snow-covered trees at the church, my compact camera went with me. Below is a gallery of images made at the Swedesburg Evangelical Lutheran Church along with a few photos from yesterday afternoon at East Lake Park. You may click on any image in the gallery to view a larger version.
The trees have dropped their leaves and autumn color has faded away. Brilliant red caught my attention this fall as did landscape images instead of my usual macro photography. Whether it was shooting my favorite street to drive down in the fall or the local parks, I certainly saw my hometown different than when I grew up here. And if you have been following me for a while, you know I like different. Below is a gallery of some of the images I made this autumn of the beautiful trees and lovely reflections at Oakland Mills State Park, Saunders Park and East Lake Park.
Different Isn't Wrong, It's Just Different
