Ice and Snow






I really love snow. Thankfully, here in the Ohio Valley, we don't get enough snow to get sick of it. Usually our winters are fairly mild. This year we've gotten more snow than we have in the past couple of years. Unfortunately though, we got ice along with it this time and a lot of folks are without power around here.
Still the snow makes everything look more beautiful than it actually is, and it's that fantasy that I like a lot.
The last picture above has not been photoshopped in anyway other than to do levels. (contrast, brightness etc). There really was a bright cloud with the sun shining through it onto the tree in the sky. It was amazing and I was so lucky to have captured it!

Sorry!!











I'm so sorry that I've been so remiss in posting to the blog! January has been busy and the whole family has had colds. The light in winter isn't the greatest for getting photos either. Lots of grey days where I am.








Above are some images that I pulled off the camera this week. They are of Sunsets that occurred recently here in Kentucky. I'm very pleased with them albeit they are a tad cliche.








Enjoy! If you would like prints of any of my photos, please feel free to let me know. Not all of them are up on the smugmug page yet.

Happy New Year!




New years are always great aren't they? All about new beginnings, new hopes, etc.. Until of course about January 28th when you realize that the post holiday let down has begun and no one gets any holidays off until much later..hahahaha




I hope that this year I Get out of the house a LOT More, WITH the camera and that I become better at taking photos. I hope that you and your family have a wonderful new year and that all of your goals are accomplished :-)
