January Has a cold kind of beauty

I suppose January doesn’t look the same all over the world. Here it is cold but it can be beautiful. Photos with a lot of snow in them provide some challenges. There is a lot of contrast and if the sun is shining the snow can be blinding. Sometimes it helps to use a polarizing filter. I didn’t use a filter for this photo there was enough shadow in it so I didn’t have to. I processed it in HDR which is another challenge with snow pictures. it is easy to mess them up and end up with grayish black snow. I have months to practice and hope to go out and shoot some farm scenes this winter. Fields of snow . . . and cold.

I started a blog a few years ago and have written thousands of words, and taken thousands of pictures to go with those words. If I could start all over again the blog would be just pictures because each picture is worth a thousand words and I don't have to worry about spelling them correctly.
