This is a place I’ve photographed four or five times, but always in different light. Yesterday morning I had only a few minutes to get this scene before the beautiful pink hues were washed out by the rising sun. One of the features of this scene that I like is that the snow cover is light enough that the brown grass underneath allows for contrast and texture.
I will admit that I was a little lazy in that I shot this through the open passenger window of my vehicle. I am a bit of a perfectionist and yet I use imperfect practices from time to time. Why is that? Well, yesterday morning it was -3 fahrenheit. But that’s a poor excuse. . . .
Here are two previous posts. The framing is a bit different in today’s post and, interestingly, where there used to be two trees in the foreground there is now only one.
Love this version Scott, could be because I am partial to elusive pink skies at sunrise/sunset.
Thanks Patricia. I’m glad you like it. The word “elusive” is well-chosen. In this photo I had about 5 minutes before it lost the subtle pink color.
Glad you understood what I meant. I think it needed a comma or one less pink.
