I’m going to consider this my practice image! I have had this image in my head ever since the snow started falling here in Central NY. I keep seeing this grove of conifers with their branches covered and the sun catching everything in the early morning. There was actually one moment already this year where the scene was almost as I envisioned but I was unable to capture it before it disappeared.
The January thaw didn’t help my chances but the snow we just received has re-sparked my desire for this image. It still is not “right” since there is not enough snow on the branches of the trees but it is getting closer. Saturday morning the sun was doing its part but by the time I walked down to the field the clouds decided my walk would be in vain. I did take the opportunity to check out the possible views in the field and from various locations along the road. I’ll be ready when the snow completes my image!
For now another entry in my Monochrome Winter series…

i think it’s a beautiful scene
Thanks Chloe!
Hopefully I’ll be able to capture the image that is stuck in my head before winter is over…
Beautiful!! Great shot!!!
Thank you Rexlin.
Nice. I enjoy monochrome images, particularly land/seascapes.
Muy Buena,… Una Gran Fotografía Para Mí…
Gracias José. Todavía estoy esperando para capturar la imagen en mi cabeza antes de que el invierno ha terminado…
Espero Lo Consigas…
I really like it in black and white, it’s a beautiful image 🙂
Thank you Jocelyne! I’m still hoping for one more good snow to give me the snow covered branches I really want to capture.
I’m hoping for more snow too, it’s so much more beautiful. But this winter we don’t have as much snow as usual. Good luck with that snow !
